Trainfest and Flyonel

I attended trainfest in Milwaukee today with my two and a half year old.  What a good time we had.  I spent most my
time chasing him around but I did get to talk with Lionel and photograph the new cylindrical hoppers.  They look good
and there is not sagging on the walkway on the top of the car.  The Badgerland S Gauge club had some of the hoppers on loan and running on their modular layout being pulled by the Conrail ES44.  Pictures should be (hopefully) attached.  A few I cannot get to rotate...sorry. 

I did not see anything at the MTH booth for S Gauge.

 Ben, MTH had a few pieces of S gauge on a shelf to the right of their main display, none of it painted. I inquired about S gauge at the display but it seemed as though the man I asked did not have time to spend with a person interested in S.
