Thanks to Brian H for this write-up
Another successful show!! Although on Palm Sunday, enough members attended for things to run smoothly.
We had Brian, Mike M, Dave F and Dave E for setup, with modules from all of them plus from Lizz, and we were subsequently joined by Mike W, Patrick C and Lizz.
We were up and running by a few minutes after 9. Not too crowded, but a fair number of moms with youngsters.
The layout shape was very similar to the layout from the prior Wayne show, but with a quite different mix of modules. And what would a show be without a gremlin or two appearing in the layout at odd times (but nothing too serious)?
And in shocking news - Brian actually brought a box of trains and ran one all day!!
Earplugs and gas masks would have been handy. The O scalers started the day with a loco with a faulty sound board, sounding like a loud screechy vacuum cleaner in need of lube, and then later ran a steamer (and caboose) that gave off a fair imitation of the smoke n smell of a swamp fire!
Mercifully, they were packed up and gone before the show ended.
(( AS-BUILT PLAN COMING SOON ))
