James Keena Wins Again!

James Keena, our Chief Clerk, entered several of his models at the recent Rails to the Rim convention of the Pacific Southwest Region of the NMRA held in Flagstaff recently.

James won a First Place in the Locomotives category for his excellent model of a Baldwin VO 1000 with trolley poles in Pacific Electric livery. This same model was entered in the NMRA national convention in Sacramento last July.

Model of a Baldwin VO 1000 with trolley poles takes first place in the Locomotives category.

He also took a First Place in the Freight Cars category for his Pittsburgh & Lake Erie gondola. You may have seen this model running on the rails of the Highland Pacific Railroad.

The Non-Revenue rolling stock category entry of a Highland Pacific Railroad tank car for fire service also produced a First Place award.

This convention combined with the NMRA national convention James brought in 9 awards. He is, indeed, a winner!
