After some tough negotiating (bidding) I am happy to announce that I have acquired the (an) OGR Headquarters Building. The Mega Movers (UPS) working with the on site contractors (Stout Auction Staff) will soon transport this handsome building to Denver, CO. Once here it will be placed on the RMD Modular Layout and become part of the Denver skyline. You can see it in person at the Rocky Mountain Train Show in Denver on Dec 12th and 13th.

A nicely done, attention grabbing announcement for the show.
Raised my blood pressure until I read the rest of your post.

Ed,
Maybe one day some OGR staff can come out and visit .
If you live in the Rocky Mountain Division there is a chance we will be coming to a show / venue near you. There is some talk about taking modules outside our region, we just have to find a show where we would be a good fit (the modules are 26.5 by 33).
I am not sure whose collection it was. Prices seemed a bit high today (holiday shopping maybe). This was the only lot I won today, no complaints. 2 or 3 buildings will be donated to our modules, 2 will be gifts to one of the guys who has put in many, many hours to the modules 1 or 2 will make it to my layout (when it is built) and 1 will go to the Ronald McDonald house.
Got my attention! Good announcement for your show. Hope you guys do well.

Once I get the model I am going to light it with leds, put some shadow figures /furniture into some windows (if I do not go with clear and actually furnish the offices)
Finally 1 or 2 pt font transfers with the names of some of the staff will be added to the bottom left corner of each window.
Keep the day time job.
Does that mean that they might feature more layouts west of Ohio?

The RMD TCA module layout is going to be one of the best in the county when she's finished.

I'm glad OGR (and their thousands of employees) are going to be in the US. First they were in Nazareth, then they were in Poland. Not many world headquarters jump around the world like this.
was in the Nazareth office building, right on rte 191.
Well....now I am really confused! Just how many OGR Headquarters are there anyway?!! I thought this was the official OGR Headquarters Building...and even Andre made and presented the sign that was just put up on the outside!!

Think of it this way. Now you have a legitimate excuse to go skiing, Have the pleasure of shoveling snow and the best, driving in it. . If nothing else you now have an excuse to build a ski resort and partner with Erik over in 2RS.
