Regina Model Train Show

Posted by adam dodge on Saturday, November 2, 2013, In : Show Info 
The Regina Model Train Show starts tomorrow!!!

Held (for this year) at the Saskatchewan Science Centre, the show runs during the operational hours of the centre itself.  Admission to the Science Centre should give you admission to the show!

Due to the limited nature of the space, we will be offereing a 12'x12' layout with train track running through various terrain and themes!  We'll also have a couple other creations on hand that don't quite fit into the layout (scale-wise, not awesome-wise!)....

We will be showcasing a 12' x 12' layout of city, trains and what-not, with our regular humour and flair! ...

This past weekend, the Saskatchewan Lego Users Group took part in the Prairie Rail Workshop-hosted Saskatoon Model Train Show.  It was held at the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon and had a very good turn-out by the public (numbers pending).

Eight of our members took part in the show creating a large 40'x8' train layout, as well as two display tables chalk-full of creations!  We were fortunate enough to earn the Best Non-Scale display award again for our efforts!
