"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care" (From "Twas the Night Before Christmas" by Clement Moore, 1822):



On December 10-11, 2011, the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh held its second annual "Locomotion Weekend." Following are some of the pix I took. I didn't get a lot of good shots due to the big crowds there that Saturday.

Managed to catch three trains in this shot Smile :


There were many model train-related displays and layouts spread throughout the building, including O, S, and HO modular clubs, the TCA, Scenic Express (one of this forum's great sponsors), the Lionel tower displays and a couple small O gauge displays, including the following compact Polar Express layout that was on loan from Len's Train Shop:

Merry Christmas everyone, and a Happy Hanukkah to all our Jewish forumites!
