I just got off the phone talking to cwclark (Chuck) a little while ago out in Crosby, and he suggested that we meet at a train show, which I think would be a much better idea. For those of you interested, please e-mail me by clicking on my user name then click on the e-mail option on my personal info page and send me your user name so that I can contact and inform you of when and where we’re going to get together.

OK what are you guys planning?? I think we better keep an eye on you, we can only imagine what you are up to. Ve haff vays of finding out about you ! !
hi mark, the best way to find out about a train show is thru Papa Ben’s trains (713) 523 -5600 …he usually has the skinny on all the train shows in Texas…San Antonio sounds like the best bet if we can just find out when and where…e-mail the San Antonio Model Railroad Association at samra@samrarail.org and they should know of any upcoming train shows in their area…San Antonio would be good because it’s pretty much in the middle of the state and everyone can be within a days drive of there…just my thoughts…chuck
Hey there Chuck. You just keep those good thoughts coming… I very much appreciate the help at trying to put this together. Also appreciate the inside info on Papa Ben’s and the Round House yesterday. That was very interesting to know.

hey guys also the schedule of events is in the MR homepage all you gotta do is put in what your lookin for and zip code and a radius. I did this yesterday and found several shows within the next few months in the D/FW area

hmm train show, train show… Actually you guys just missed the AMRE show here. It was pretty good, I bought a few things.
Was it in Live Oak again this year?
Next train shows are as follows.
Nov 12-13 Houston TX Pasadena Convention Center
7902 Fairmont Parkway Hobbies Unlimited www.gwaats.com
Jan 7-8 Houston TX George R. Brown Center
1001 Avenida de las Americas WGH www.wghshow.com
Im glad one is coming back to downtown Houston, much closer for me since I live in NW Houston.

Yes it was. Same place the SAMRA Jamboree is held. I think it might be best to wait till February and all go to the Jamboree. Its the best show every year in my opinion. Well, they are having the LSR convention here this summer. But It’s a long way off.
If you guys want to meet at the jamboree in february, email me your name and address and I can get some flyers sent your way.
The train show in February falls on the 11th.
It is going to be in Stafford Center on Murphy Rd. in Southwest Houston.
Hmm Im talking about the SAMRA show in san antonio. I don’t remember the exact date but its in the first few days of Feb.
