All the information about Coast Division Auction 
Guidelines
   At every quarterly  NMRA Coast Division Meet, we have an Auction that is rich 
   with a wonderful array of model railroading treasures being sold by 
   our members.  Brass locomotives, locomotives, rolling stock, structures, 
   kits, parts, books, videos, magazines, and more are to be found - this is a 
   rich resource for hard-to-find items
   long gone from the hobby shop shelves, and at very good prices.    Come out, 
   browse, shop, and enjoy the fun!   You never know what you will find!

How does the Auction benefit the Coast Division?
    The Coast Division quarterly Auction directly benefits all of us, in that 
   the seller automatically donates a small 10% of the auction selling price.  
   This small amount of money adds up over the course of all the items auctioned 
   off, and is a significant source of income for Coast Division to pay for 
   things like the Coast Dispatcher printing and mailing, expenses to cover 
   costs of holding the meets and events, and other expenses to support our 
   services to our membership.   
   Most of all, of course, the items in the Auction benefit all of us as true 
   bargain-hunters and treasure-hunters!  Come on out and see what is there!
To participate in the Auction
   Any person who meets one of the following criteria may participate in the 
   Coast Division Auction:

Note:  You can meet the criteria for 
   being a NMRA member in good standing, by purchasing a NMRA Railpass $9.95 trial
