The Pepperell Siding model railroad club in Pepperell, Massachusetts, had a show and open house this past weekend. It was a very well-attended event, from what I could see. The show was held in a local school, and the club (a mile or so away) was open for visitors as well.
For a show well out in the exurbs of Boston, this was pretty good. There were a bunch of operating layouts, and even a live steam demo on a short track outside, with a bench-car behind for the kids to ride. There were a few vendors, not a lot, but I wasn’t in the market for much of anything so I didn’t care.
This was my first visit to the club, and I must say I was impressed with their layout. It’s largely “finished,” with great mountain scenery
