Garden Railroading News Update

Things have been doing quite well.

The website and Facebook pages are now up and have been well received.

As of last Sunday, 46 Clubs had completed and returned their surveys. Of these, 45 were favorable.

The eNewsletter has now been downloaded/viewed over 2,000 times.

Newsletters have been received from 28 Clubs. (That’s already a lot of articles from which to pick and choose.)

The website has had over 1,300 unique visitors.

We have had visitors from 23 countries.

The Facebook Group now has 305 members and over 100 posts.

… and what could be better you ask?

We have been having problems getting a hold of some clubs, especially in the east. If you belong to, or know of a club that has not received an email request to join us, let me know and we will get you taken care of.

And what does the future hold?

We contine to add clubs as they meet with their memberships and try out the newsletter. (Covid has put a major damper of Club meetings, and this adds to the response time.)

We will feature an “international article” in each newsletter.

We have already had requests for advertising. LGB has taken a full page ad, and the other major manufactures have also committed to ads. Many of the vendors that you became familiar with in Garden Railways Magazine are also on board.

The second issue is in progress and scheduled for release on November 20th.

Stay tuned!

Todd , what is the name of the Facebook page? Thanks, Pete

I should have included this.

Thanks,

Todd
