Unfortunately I will not be there this year, as the 2000 mile drive is a bit much. Maybe next year - I was born in Milwaukee and I do want to get to Trainfest one of these days.
I have no doubt that Ken, John, and others will be taking lengthy videos of SGMA's Trainfest layout and will be posting them online after the show so you shouldn't have any problems seeing the Harmon Milwaukee Road Baltic and its Schlitz Beer Circus Train in action at Trainfest.
Better idea! Why not come to Trainfest this year! Simply join SGMA by registering online on SGMA's Yahoo group site. Fly into Milwaukee on November 7th. Stay with other SGMA members at the Country Inn and Suites in Brookfield, WI near the State Fair Park and its Wisconsin Exposition Center where Trainfest is held. Help setup the SGMA layout at Trainfest on Friday, November 8th. Then join in the fun of operating that layout during Trainfest on Saturday and Sunday, November 9-10 before you return home on Monday morning!
