Saint John Show March 1

This will be a great weekend with the Saint John model train show at St. Malachy's High School on Saturday. It also looks like a crew from Nova Scotia will be arriving in my basement to bring the railway to life on Saturday evening.

With the hope of being minimally ready for the show, and with help from Lou McIntyre, I have been constructing four modules that will serve as the Carleton Railway's Monticello yard and interchange with the BAR. Construction of the wooden frames is complete but installation of the trackwork and scenery have not yet begun. Although I won't be ready to include them with the club's modules at this year's show, with a full year to work at the modules I should have a very complete scene for the show next year.

Have fun at the show and good luck with that bunch from Nova Scotia - you're going to need it!

Odd though, since you know those guys why on earth would you let them at your layout? Then again, you did let us run it last weekend. Have you seen a doctor lately?

Ha!
