Soiree 2018

Here are a few pictures of the 2018 IRM Soiree held at the Old Warsaw Inn.

The Buck brothers among the crowd.

Say hello to Harold

Steve you look lonely there

The place was packed with members

Two Nicks and a Rich

The table with a beer and pitcher of water. The conversation was really flowing

To say the least everyone went home well satisfied the Stuffed with good food and drink. Thanks to Harold Krewer for putting this together! The entertainment for the night was a fascinating group of slides of Chicago electric lines in operation. For those of you who could make this 2018 soiree why not consider attending next years soiree. Hope to see everyone next February! Thanks Roger
