Regina Train Show - postgame

October 17, 2011
Best.  Show.  Ever.

Without a doubt, this past show was our best to date!  Not only did we have more of our own members in attendance (8), but we were all able to hang around our largest layout to date!

The over 200 square feet came together nicely when set-up, with only one small hiccup.  Each table blended well into the next, yet showed off the diverse building talents of ever memeber of our group.  We recieved many comments about the build from other attendees and the public.  Overall, it was a great experience and a perfect excuse to hang out and talk shop all day!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our display and asked questions!  We hope to see you all at the show next year, if not sooner at an upcoming show!

If you could not make our show this year, be sure to check out the pictures on the 'Current Photos' page!  Then get geared up for our next showing in Saskatoon!

Keep building!
