Tri-State Meetings Return on Zoom! The December 17th meeting will feature a deep dive into freight operations on the Rahway Valley Railroad. Tri-State owns the two Rahway Valley 70-tonners and this presentation will take a look at this quirky short-line's daily freight operations. Customers the railroad served will also be featured, as well as an abundance of humorous anecdotes.

Most, if not all, the information will be from extensive interviews Richie King conducted with Walt Switz, who started his railroad career on the Rahway Valley in 1966. We'll also see a number of photographs Switz took during his time there.

Richie has authored two books on the railroad and is working on a third on facilities, industries, and operations, he also serves as Tri-State's Treasurer.

The membership portion of the meeting begins on Zoom at 7:00 PM. Click here to register in advance for this webinar.

All are welcome to attend!
