Looks like a nice set up they did their in JAX. Thanks for posting.
How long is it going to be on display?
I think it will be on display till the 28th.
Looks like a very nice job. Public displays are a good way to promote our hobby.
Nice job Jax TCA, every one of these public displays is important!
Its still not too late to take a small layout to a nursing home in your area or other public facility. The shut-ins are especially grateful. It doesn't have to be elaborate - just a table with batts of 'snow' with some ceramic buildings that light up. One or two simple loops of track and a couple of willing 'engineers' to talk with people.
Our favorite story is last year at a nursing home there was a man in a wheelchair who was just beaming - all excited like a small boy. A nurse came over to us with tears in her eye saying "That man has been here for 7 or 8 months and this is the first time we've seen him smile'.
THAT's what it's all about....
