If the bank gets off its dead _ _ _ _! and I can get a car before November, I'll be there with the modules. If not, I may still be there, at the GCLaser booth. This year will be year 28, at Trainfest..

Less than one week to go! Who's in?
Re: Trainfest in Milwaukee - ezdays - 11-05-2012
Would love to go that would make a nice change of pace for us, but my mobile range is limited to about ten miles right now until my knee heals. It's something to look forward to for next year though. You guys have a great time there.

I pick up the rental van tomorrow! Got a chance yesterday to get some measurements from the interior, and have worked out a fairly simple "Hold down mechanism" to keep the modules safe during transit.
I do booth setup on the 8th, module setup ( the new modules ) on the 9th, with the Lake County Society of Modular Engineers, and I'll get some "play time" in on Saturday and Sunday. Hopefully, an hour in the morning, and an hour in the afternoon, each day.
I haven't decided what mainline traffic I'll bring, but the dual gauge line will probably see traffic from SHLC ( Standard gauge ), and SHS&D ( 3' gauge )
If I'm not at the modules, look for me at the GC Laser Booth.......
Be happy to sell you a few of our kits.

Just because - - - - Trainfest is one of, if not THE largest railroad model display shows in the country! AND, there are a good number of manufacturers, and hobby shops that will be there also. If there's any way, any of you " BigBlueGaugians", can get there. . . . . I think you will find it well worth the time and expense.
See you there?
