The New York Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society meets monthly except for July and August. Our regular meeting date is the first Monday of each month, September through June.
This meeting will be held in person in Manhattan and by Zoom. Entertainment will be by Paul Gawkowski. Paul's show will cover the Alaska Railroad from Denali to Seward, including its Coastal Classic; a look at the White Pass and Yukon in Skagway; Vancouver and its SkyTrain; Seattle's newest light rail line, Line 2, and the East Link extension; and rides on Amtrak's Cascades from Vancouver to Seattle; and the Coast Starlight from Seattle to Los Angeles.
Our meetings in person are held at St. Margaret's House, 49 Fulton St., Manhattan, between Pearl and Cliff Streets on the north side; enter the main door and turn left, proceed past the double doors and into a corridor, where we meet at Meeting Room 3 on the left. St. Margaret's House is convenient to the Fulton St. subway complex; the closest subway lines in the complex are the 2 and 3 lines, and the south (downtown) end of the A and C lines. The J, Z, 4 and 5 lines also serve the complex; the PATH at World Trade Center and the Wall Street ferry piers are also within walking distance, and the SBS bus lines on 1st and 2d Avenues.
