Gone But Not Forgotten

My Memorial
The Fall Cal-Stewart meet honors the memory of John King with a cocktail party on Friday evening in his name. John King was the life of the TTOS SW Division and contributed much to the early success of the Fall event. He loved to be the auctioneer at the annual event and encouraged new young collectors to feel welcome into the hobby of toy train collecting and operating.

Cheers Guys! Have a beer on me!
