Jim Fitzgerald Passes Away

Jim Fitzgerald passed away in the last week at age 90.  Jim was a pillar and glue to the N Scale Community for many in years with a focus on the NTrak community.  He believed that model railroad needed to be brought to the people and the way to do it was by modules at public venues including shows. This editor wishes to express his thanks to Jim for all the work over the years in promoting the hobby.  Our condolences to his family

    No one else will probably ever suggest, much less actually use, depleted Uranium to facilitate the pulling power of an N-Scale diesel. Those were the days.

    Jim Fitzgerald was quite a guy!
