Charger- If you are going to the train show, Public hours Friday hours are 12- 4 and Saturday 9a to 3p. Clinics are on both days.
We have not heard of any vendors or manufacturers that are doing Friday only. There might be some individuals that are there Friday morning for the convention registrees, but the reason we added the Saturday show was at the request of the vendors.
Latest episode of "The Road to Nashville" is in The Cattle Car. Two parts today. https://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/the-road-to-nashville.144585/#post-1227943 Stay safe,
Just a few days now! Following along on Mark's journey with great interest! Looks like he is having a great time. Two shameless plugs, the main one is if you are there, make sure to stop in to the Online Modelers Meet Up at 6:30 local time on Wednesday! Second, if you use Woodland Scenics foam roadbed or need the 4 storage boxes in these pics, find me and they are yours for super cheap or less. Going to be a fun time!
And don't forget to bring something for the modeling contest and the auction! Looking forward to seeing you all.
NOTE: Participants who attempt to auction High Speed® N Scale products as made notorious on our More eBay Humor thread will be forcibly removed from the event.
And the next installment of "The Road to Nashville" has been posted. https://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/the-road-to-nashville.144585/ Stay safe,
You'll have a longer time on Saturday, as we are open from 9am to 3pm. On Friday it is open to non-registrants from 12-4. The clinics are held both days.
Alert! We have had a schedule change in our tour routing for Wednesday! The hosts of 2 of our stops on the layout tour are unable to host (they are sick) leaving only 1 layout on the tour. As this is not a great value, we have chosen to cancel the 8am and 12pm tours. If you are booked on either tour, you will be receiving a full refund. No changes to the other tours. We apologize in advance.
"The Road to Nashville" leads through Missouri. https://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/the-road-to-nashville.144585/page-2
"The Road to Nashville" has reached its end. https://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/the-road-to-nashville.144585/page-2
Most excellent Mark! Has been fun following along on the journey. My road to Nashville starts in about 30 minutes and will be no where near as exciting as Mark's. Going to be fun to meet new folks as well as fellow TrainBoard members! See you all later today!
A big Thank You to all of the folks who contributed photos for the cyberspace modelers meetup at the N Scale Convention. And to BNSF FAN for putting the slide show together. Some amazing photos that I missed on TB.
Is it Southern Pacific or is it Denver & Rio Grande? Only High Speed knows.......Buaaaaaaah Thank you Readers Digest for providing these incredible models.
Argh............ Reminds me of the fake switch locks from China with the soldered on tag "Central Union Pacific".
Colleen and I are on the way back from the NNSC. I looked very carefully and did not see any products for which Reader's Digest was responsible. I took a large number of photos, many of which will wind up on the virtual cutting room floor. There were three large layouts: one T-Trak, one N-Trak and one FREMO/Bend-Track. Unfortunately, and as usual I am told, the lighting was not the best. Here's a grab shot from Colleen's iPhone taken on the BendTrack layout. It was great to get together with some of the folks I've not met before (like Richard/BNSF FAN) and others I have not seen in years. Next year the NNSC goes to Reno.
