GERN originated in Canada in the mid-'50s, and there are currently over 40 GERN modellers, with representatives from North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. There may be Members from other continents participating, but not everyone wishes to reveal that type of information. Goldth
Anyone wanting to participate in the fun, simply send me a PM with your e-mail address and I'll send you a bunch of GERN material: ads, billboards, calendar illustrations and other information. If you wish to create your own GERN rolling stock, please contact me for appropriate numbers - this is only to avoid duplication.

Just don't forget. GERN is 3% better than the other leading brand.

Hi there,
I was working on my GERN Industries complex for some time and finally placed it in his final space.Next is to fill,sand and primer it....Is there a typical color for GERN buildings?

There's no "company colours" as such, so you can use any colour you wish, and that goes for the degree of weathering, too. The main purpose of GERN is as a traffic generator, and Mr. Gibson doesn't want to place excessive restrictions on what each modeller does: after all, it's suitable for whatever era you wish to model and whatever locale, too.

As I recall, the last release was the calendar art from last year. My brother, the originator of GERN and source of most of the advertising material, has been working under contract for the last year-or-so, and then began renovating his house.
When he has time to create more, I'll pass it along to all GERN modellers as it becomes available.

There's nothing like the classic ads.

I still worry about Grandpa ending up in Arnprior -- especially from a start in Chippawa.

Re: GERN Industries Gibson Works... - doctorwayne - 12-24-2014

Well, it's nothing major, but I've been asked to send this along to not only the GERN modellers, but to all Members of Big Blue, from Cookie Gibson:

But a sprinkling of GERN Flux on your diet drink means 3% more weight loss.

But I only drink Energy Drinks laced with GERN for 3% more energy and performance.

Or I add a spoonful of GERN to my coffee for 3% more flavour, energy and a bigger caffeine hit.
A minor side effect is that it puts 3% more hairs on my chest, which is a minor problem for us blokes but a major problem for the ladies, requiring 3% more trips to the beauty terrorist, I mean beauty therapist.
