Fun pics from the Model Train Show

On Sunday, while everyone was getting pre-drinking for the Super Bowl, Smartz and I checked out the Model Train Show at the Evergreen Fair Grounds in Monroe.

I’m again becoming quite the little railfan, and even though I had a small train layout when I was a kid, I never really got too into model railroading. However, since I like trains, I figured that I’d enjoy myself at the train show.

Turns out, I did.

I took tons of pics, trying to get Smartz’s camera to co-operate with macro-close up shot – only a handful turned out as anything interesting.

Check them out, if you like…

Now you’re cookin with gas! I’ve always had a fascination for model trains. If you ever get up to Victoria there is a great model train exhibit in the downtown, tourist area near the Princess Hotel.

I hope to get up there some time. I need a passport to prove I’m not a terrorist (because everybody knows that terrorists and passports are blood enemies). Anyway, yes, that would be great. This show was wonderful. I still enjoy the bigger trains better, but the little ones definitely have an appeal.
