    Next weekend, the 13-14 March, is the Z scale meet in Altenbeken. This bi-anual meet was formerly Geseke (neighboring city) but due to personnel changes, the space was no longer available to moved to Altenbeken.

    I will travel Wednesday to meet up with Dave George (a.k.a. Mr. Dave) of the GOlden Blackhawk Central travelling Z scale road show (only in the U.S. http://misterdavezscale.blogspot.com/) and Larry Dornsbach. Thursday and Friday, we'll run trains at the OWL group, a US Z scale layout.

    Lot of great super detail parts. Every one works on details, trying to cram as much great, realistic stuff in the typical Marklin-like size (like apartment size 2x3 layouts). Big show layouts with many more of single track mid lines (like Wash DC Wiz KidZ). Amazing stuff.

    I´ll bring some pics later, but didn´t have the time to make many, I had to run trains (which isn´t the worst).
    It was a great weekend, I was very glad to meet you Jeff, Mr. Dave and Larry. See you in 2012.
