Halifax Model Train Show

The annual Halifax Sportsplex Model Train Show is on this weekend! It will be open Saturday Nov 15 from 9am to 4:30pm, and Sunday Nov 16 from 10am to 3pm.

I will be at the show with the kids on Saturday, and probably on Sunday as well.

Dartmouth Model Railroad Show

On Saturday November 17 I visited the Dartmouth model railroad show with my two youngest kids. I was pretty impressed with the displays - some really nice work there. The usual vendors were there and I walked away with a 3-pack of container cars and a signed copy of Jay Underwood's new book From Folly to Fortune: The Firing of James Richardson Forman. I look forward to reading it!

I put a bunch of photos in my gallery but here are a few for your enjoyment.









Here's a Lego train running around the layout. Note the display screen on the wall showing what the steam locomotive is seeing.


Kevin G took video of quite a bit of the show:

Dartmouth Model Train Show

I will be attending the annual Dartmouth model train show Saturday November 17 (and probably Sunday too). My two little kids and I will admire the many displays, hopefully buy some employee timetables and train orders, and have a good time. I'll try and get a few photos to post afterward!
