METRA troubles

[Uncrichie]

Thats pretty neat, Manheim is exactly 80 miles for me which is the exact same distance to MDRA. Its nice to have choices!!! Reference to NEPRA, I joined just after (unbeknownst to me) it went belly up. I often wondered where the dues money went?

From what I was told by the then president of the club, all remaining funds were donated to the NAR for the BATF lawsuit.

NEPRA was about 30 minute drive for me, still miss it after all these years.

I went to a few of the launches out in Nicholson PA ?? Very scenic drive for me from NYC - still remember that
huge railroad bridge right outside of town.

Yep, that would be what's locally called the Nicholson Bridge, although the proper name is Tunkhannock Viaduct.

If that in fact is where it went, I'm satisfied.

And here is a pic of that RR bridge I took on the way back from a NEPRA launch in Oct 2004 -



Wow... gas was 1.97 back then....

Has anyone heard anything about when the first launch might be at the new location?

We're still waiting to hear back from the landowners.
