Hobby event

2018 National Train Show, Day 2 - a bit more polish
Okay, it's already 9:40pm here, so I will only be posting a fraction of the photos I took today. I don't actually know what the total was. Well over 450.
The photos I'm going to post are those from what I call the "Studio Shots" - this is where I go out, grab new products and bring them back to my ad hoc photo studio (white backdrop, table, two mono-light/flashes w/umbrellas).
You've already seen the ScaleTrains.com photos, here are more of products from Athearn, Atlas, North American Railcar/Pacific Western Rail Systems, and Walthers.
2018 National Train Show, Day 1 - quick shots
Okay, it's Day 1 at the NTS and I decided to try something new. I knew there were several product announcements coming out, so I I took my camera around to do quick snaps and see what I needed to follow up on later as well.

Kansas City to be Last Operations Road Show Outing
Twenty years ago this month, a group of five people began building a large portable layout to give people a chance to try out timetable-and-train order operation, who might not otherwise have the opportunity. Fifteen years ago, the Operation Road Show's Wabash layout debuted at the 2003 NMRA National Convention in Toronto. Since that time, the layout has traveled to six national Conventions, and been a participant, from its home base, in the nearby 2007 Convention in Detroit.
