I’m bumping up my own posting here. We hope to see many of you at Trainfest this year and in particular, at the Kalmbach booth on Saturday at noon for a group photo. All who visit these Forums are very welcome – the more the merrier.

Be sure to stop by the Northeastern Wisconsin O Gaugers club layout at Trainfest. This is our 2nd year there. Unfortunately I can’t attend, but there will be a great bunch of guys there willing to chat about our passion for O gauge trains - running almost all manufacturer’s goods. NEW O runs on Atlas track, and has had a club modular layout for the past 10 years - our club is 11 years old. Have a great time at Trainfest!
