Steam rail fanning November 2018

Rail Fanning in Chattanooga, TN near TVRM November 2018

Here we see South 630 and 4501 double heading near Holtsclaw road as they start out their trip to Summerville, Ga.

A single 4501 producing some great smoke while going near Chickamauga Battle field. It was a great beautiful day and the reason I love to rail fan with steam.

NGM Club Letter July 2018

NGM CLUB MEMEBERS ONLY!!

A Letter from our Club President

to Members, NGM
 
HI NGM’ers,

Hope all is well.

In recent emails and correspondence with me and BOD, I want to clarify something concerning North Georgia Modurail.

The name “North Georgia Modurail” will still be used for:

  1. Doing Business As (DBA)
  2. Web site
  3. Facebook
  4. Email
  5. Twitter etc.

The only thing that has changed is the legal business entity, which is now NGM Club Inc. and not North Georgia Modurail Inc. which we have dissolved.

What does this mean: membership, payments, fees, tax forms, checks and bank account will be NGM Club Inc. doing business as North Georgia Modurail.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact myself, Bruce or Rob.

Regards,

Johannes van Niekerk
President
North Georgia Modurail
