We will offer a "Bash 'n Build" clinic (with sincere appreciation to Greg Martin) taught by Fenton Wells that will enable participants to create a Southern Railway 120000-132499 <tel:120000-132499> series thirty-six foot ventilated boxcar – a few of which ran until 1953.  The first 25 paid registrations received at our mailing address shown below will entitle the registrant to a complimentary Bash ‘n Build kitcontaining: 
> • An Accurail #1800 36' Boxcar kit, 
> • Resin conversion castings by Dr. Dave Campbell; and

> A limited number of castings and decals will be available in the future for sale to those who do not receive one of the 25 complimentary “Bash ‘n Build kits”.  Details later.
>  
> 2. Hands On Weathering.  We will have several continuous "hands-on" weathering clinics over the two days featuring expert modelers, each of who have different weathering styles and application techniques so attendees can watch, practice “hands on” weathering and decide what weathering style he or she prefers.  Our weathering clinicians are:
> • Dave Schroedle:  Oils + Powder + Gouache mix – 33% each.
> •

> Brian Banna: Truck sideframes only, Pan Pastels varying color depth & cast.
> • Tony Sissons:  90% PanPastels + 5% oils + 5% acrylic.  Also hand painted graffiti.
