There will be engines running around the park courtesy of Poway-Midland Railroad, model trains inside, and some of San Diego’s best musical talent on the Gazebo Stage, with shaded seating for the audience. Master storyteller Marilyn McPhie will keep things on time and will tell some train stories! Check out the Farmers Market in the morning. The following is the music schedule: 10 a.m. Now & Then. Super-versatile and talented group featuring Scott Culver Thomson, Paul Castellanos, and Carol Mellor (who will also be working sound crew). We expect they will bring as many different instruments as they can carry in one load. 11 a.m. Johnny High-Hat Combo. Johnny does his best to pack a circus, a swing dance, and a tent revival into a single set of music. Noon Robin Henkel. Robin plays old bluesy songs on old funky guitars like nobody’s business, and could probably fill the whole day with train songs if we had the time. 1 p.m. Sharon Katz & The Peace Train. Sharon and her crew will take us on a ride from South Africa to Baja to Poway, and give us the opportunity to get up and dance if we have a mind to. 2 p.m. Joe Rathburn. Perhaps the most accomplished and versatile solo musician in San Diego. We can always count on Joe for a first-class performance on any occasion. 3 p.m. Splendid Torch. Down home Americana, filtered through the East Coast folk scene, presented by a trio of young, energetic musical standouts.
