National Train Day

10 May 2010 9:35 AM | Stephen Sayles (Administrator)

I would like to thank everyone who particle in our most successful day yet. We had approximately 1,500 people through Tampa Union Station doors who enjoyed touring the Amtrak Cars, Model RR layouts and wonderful exhibits as well as informational sources.

The Tampa Tribune ran an article on the event, which can be found here: http://www2.tbo.com/content/2010/may/08/national-train-day-makes-tampa-whistle-stop

A special thanks to the following for their exceptional effort.

  • Jackson McQuigg
  • Vickie Toranzo Zacker
  • Jim Langston

Also wish to thank the board members of Friends of Tampa Union Station
for their efforts as well.

Thank you all and look forward to working with everyone again on next years National Train Day.

Sincerely,
Stephen Sayles
President FCRP
