MFMR Convention

I had a great weekend at the Maritime Federation of Model Railroaders (MFMR) convention in Halifax this weekend.  Four members of our SJSMR club took our modules to be included as part of the public train show on Saturday.  The Carleton Railway was represented by my six modules representing Monticello, Maine.  Since our club's show last November, I have done a considerable amount of work on the two outside modules.  
In the photo above, a train has just entered the Monticello yard.  The busy commercial district can be seen in the background. 
Above, the local farm supply dealer is hoping for good sales this spring--the lot is crowded with the latest tractor models.  Below, a residential area has been added across the tracks from the Main Street.
The weekend concluded with some visits to Halifax-area layouts and a brief operating session at Doug's White River Southern.  Thanks to everyone in the Halifax club for their work in making a good convention.

Thanks for dropping by, Ewen returned your train to the Yard.

Learned a few things during your great clinic on Saturday. Been adjusting my paperwork today. More to come after I can send sometime doing more research.

thanks again
