PRESENTATIONS

RHJ Rail has produced the following PRESENTATIONS as part of the Bow Valley Model Railroad Association programme. Presentations containing video content are marked (*).

Note that presentations presented in .pdf format have a much smaller file size and download much quicker but they lack special effects such as sound and animation (videos).

If you just want to see what's there, use .pdf format and go to full screen (F11) mode; if you want all the bells and whistles (literally) use the original PowerPoint format (not marked .pdf) but you will need PowerPoint to view those.
