2010 NMRA Pacific Northwest Region's Cascadian International Convention at Lynnwood, Washington

Some of the Model Railroad Hobbyist staff visted the 2010 PNR Convention in Lynnwood just north of Seattle. If you have the chance to attend a regional convention we recommend doing so, the size may be smaller but the quality of the clinics isn't and you'll get an opportunity to visit a number of top-notch local layouts.

We shot a couple of interviews, one of a new vendor and one of a first time contest entrant. Check out the free videos from the convention - we hope you enjoy watching this footage as much as we enjoyed shooting it!
