Western most part of the state. Drat.
I hit all the train show's in my area. We even have a live steam set near me on about 5 acre's of land. The kind of model train that you can sit on and ride.
I travel out to Coopers lake Campground each year for the last week of July and the first week of August if you have a summer show. I could do it as a town run.

Drop me a line when you are in town. I have a key.

Yeah, just what I need, another expensive hobby. I am searching for 1:22.5 scale, Gauge 1 track, G gauge, garden railway whatever you call it, stuff right now. A friend is in Lehigh valley Large Scale club and they have a display set up in a local mall store front to collect money for Second Harvest.

I am going back either tonight or/and Friday to discuss and look at the trains.

Garden railroads are cool. And if you have a bad unit of rolling stock you can shoot it off the rails. Combining two hobbies into one uber expensive one!

sounds fun, thinking we'll try and stop in.
We're busy with the Nutcracker (one daughter is a dancing mouse) before Christmas so maybe in 2009- can't beleive it is a new year already!!!
Hope to see you there and we still have that wine you left here- hopefully we'll get another gathering together in the not too distant future.

I think we may try to take the little one to see the trains this afternoon.

i knew a guy who lived in baden, who built model trains or something like that for the smithsonian.... his basement was nothing but trains EVERYWHERE... his house was awesome.... all i remember of the place is he had a traffic light that went with his house alarm.... and he built a house or his son built a house right beside his dad's house.... anyone know who i'm talking about? i was young so i don't remember the guys name... he might have died by now....
