Help Bring the CN Dining Car Home

Calling on all modellers to help support this unique cause local to our area.  The Community Waterfront Heritage Centre is in the process of bringing a CN Dining Car home. 

The goal is to raise $40,000.00 to bring it 173km. 

They are selling raffle tickets to help raise the funds for the project.  Buying a ticket gives you the chance to support the cause as well as a chance to win a 1 week luxury train package for two to Quebec City with accommodation at the Fairmont Chateau Frontenac (Cash value $8,000).  Tickets are being sold throughout the summer and can be purchased at the Community Waterfront Heritage Centre as well as other places: Ginger Press, Riddell Contracting, Aveda Marine Street Hair Salon, and CWHC volunteers. The draw for this fantastic trip will take place on September 19, 2015 at 2PM at the Marine and Rail Museum.  Tickets are $25.00.

Please help support this great cause.  While most of us that model remember when the trains ran in this area, many of the younger ones don’t and this is a great way to bring the love of the trains to them.
