That time of year again! The 38th annual Boulder Model Railroad Club annual train show is approaching fast! Three day show, Dec 11, 12, 13 2015, at the Boulder County Fairgrounds in Longmont. My usual 3 rail "Candy Train" will be one of the layouts on display again this year! The kids enjoy it, and many folks remember it from year to year!
Vendor tables arrive and arrangement begins tomorrow! The club HO modular layout begins set up tomorrow also. I'll be down on Thursday, mid day, to finding out where I'll be set up. And start working on getting trains set up, tested and running! Again, show is Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Dec 11, 12, and 13. From 10AM to 5PM all 3 days. If I can this time, I hope to get a few more photos of a couple other layouts on display!!
I know the Estes Park On3 or On30 mini layout will be set up. Gotta grab some photos of that for sure! And since I'll have a bit of help available this year, I'll have some time to grab a few photos! Need to check layout list, to see who is attending. TCA tried to butt in this year. But, we still managed to get a good show lined up! To the point of having to turn folks away, as we just didn't have the room! Looking forward to it! Any photos, may be posted after the show, or during, IF there's a Wifi connection. Maybe some video. Shall see what happens.
Shut down my trains for maybe 10 minutes, as I wandered around. Grabbed a number of shots, of a couple of nice OnXX layouts! Ken, You wanted the Rattlesnake Ridge, after seeing it last year: An overall shot, showing the small size of the layout! Yes, DCC and 2 trains operating, on 2 individual levels! One of the small locomotives in use. Collapsed building Part of the village
And a few more, in the Rattlesnake Ridge album! Really is a nice little layout! Stretched out maybe another foot, and reduced to 1 level, it could also make a pretty neat coffee table layout. I think!
