Photos from the Fredericton Model Train Show

Here are my photos from the Fredericton model train show.



It was a good show. There was a good assortment of displays, from the Fredericton modules to the N-Bender layout to the O-Scale layout from Fredericton, even to the wooden trains my son fell in love with. It was good to catch up with a few old friends there, too. The only problem came when I tried to leave - my son did NOT want to go!

Fredericton Show

As previously announced, the Fredericton model train show is Saturday, Dec 6 from 9:30am to 4:30pm at the Fredericton High School. Admission is $4 for adults, $2 students and children 12 and under free. The maximum cost per family is $10.

Shapeways

I was contacted by a company called Shapeways. They provide an interesting model-making service where it appears you send them a design, and they print it out as a 3D model and send it to you.

For example, here's an N scale railway station one of their customers made.


They use several different kinds of material.

Just thought you might want to check them out. :)

DISCLAIMER: I have no relationship with this company, other than the unsolicited email they sent me.
