2008 NMRA Train Show Anaheim, California

From the other side of the table.

Well another one in the can! The 2008 Train Show in Anaheim, California was a lot of work, and a lot of fun, like always…

While there I took 500 pictures. Today I narrowed them down to about 100 or so and organized them into easily navigated galleries. Each group of pictures is categorized into its own gallery, simply click on the image to open the gallery. Click on the first image then use the arrow keys to navigate back and fourth between images.
