The 5th Annual CARM National Convention

Hamilton, Ontario, May 16, 17, 18

This weekend the Canadian Association of Railway Modelers will be hosting their 5th annual National Convention in Hamilton Ontario. Part of the convention is a Train Show on Sunday, which Fast Tracks will be attending. I will also be setting up the Bronx Terminal layout there. If you come be sure to drop by and say hi!

I have added roadbed to the layout and painted the top surface brown, which makes taking pictures of it easier as all that yellow on the walls, floor, crate and plywood top made getting the colours right difficult. The brown tones it down quite a bit. All that will eventually be covered with scenery, but I expect it may be a while before that happens as I have lots of track to install and wire first.

You might as well come to the train show on Sunday, its going to rain all weekend anyway.
