Winnipeg Model Railroad Club to hold their AGM and annual banquet on May 12

The WMRC is winding up another great season with our annual banquet! We'll be holding our AGM and presenting awards to the winners of our photo and model contests. It's being held on Friday, May 12, at the Canad Inns Destination Centre Polo Park in Aalto's Restaurant, which is located at 1405 St. Matthews Avenue.

Cocktails and dinner (buffet style or order from the menu) will start at 6:00PM, and the AGM will begin at 7:30PM. We’ll have plenty of our famous raffles featuring some great model railroad equipment, including our popular “arm's length” raffle ticket prizes, where you buy your arm’s length of tickets! Hope to see you all there!

The Gateway Western and the Winnipeg Railway Museum are still closed

Midwestern Railway Association has signed a 25 year lease with VIA which will allow the Winnipeg Railway Museum to stay in its current location. Now that the lease has been secured the museum will be looking at getting grants to upgrade the building to meet code requirements for an occupancy permit. This may involve some structural changes to the Gateway to meet code. Presently, there are no details on what needs to be done. The museum is still under renovations so there is no access to the Gateway at this time.
