Important meeting anouncement: The Central Florida Chapter (CFC) NRHS has invited the Florida East Coast chapter to join them for a joint chapter meeting. The meeting will be at the Central Florida Railroad Museum 101 S. Boyd St, Winter Garden. (Note: the museum is in Winter Garden not Winter Park) The meeting will start at 7:30 PM on October 8. Walter Smith will be the speaker with his Autotrain photos and ACL magazine covers. Florida East Coast Chapter members who would like to car pool or convoy to the meeting in Winter Garden should meet in the parking lot adjacent to the MacDonald’s at the intersection of SR 524 and Industry Rd in Cocoa at 6:00 pm. Driving directions are included below For those who would like to visit Central Florida Railroad Museum before the meeting, the museum will open at 1:00PM. Cory Ward, CFC’s program chairman, advises that the CFC board will be holding their meeting at 6:30PM in the museum. He therefore suggests that those wanting to tour the museum arrive early and then, while their board meets, eat dinner at one of the several nice cafes located within walking distance in downtown Winter Garden. The writer would suggest that one could easily spend two hours viewing the pictures and artifacts in the museum. DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS: (From McDonalds SR 524 to Central Florida Railroad Museum 1.
