Thanks, Jim. I enjoyed it. Nice to see Standard Gauge trains on a layout with room to breathe.
Pretty amazing! Thank you for sharing.
22 hopper cars, WOW I am speechless. That is a long train, very cool

I only have 10 of them. Their greedy 😎
Great show!
Maybe the best show I have ever been to: 19 modular layouts, great dealer displays, and crowded with lots of families with children.
The SGMA group is a lot of fun. I saw some great trains running, and it was nice hanging out with everyone. We had a 40'x40' layout.
An added bonus was seeing Lehigh, GRJ, and Greg Houser...plus I got a great cheesesteak sub a few miles away at "Vinnies" on Friday night.
The icing on the cake was using my new DCS Explorer to run my Blue Comet from my phone via WI-FI for the first time at a SGMA show

They have 3 homes. 7 stamped make a 4 car behind my 390E. 3 run behind the 318E set. Four MTH non stamped. The rest are originals without stamp.
33 when you come to a show.

Bob, you need to make a big push to attend the next SGMA event at Dulles next year. We miss you! No need to bring modules, or even trains if you want to fly.

Kirk,
What are the dates and I will pencil it into my appointment book?
No promises, but it might be a good event to launch my Jim Waterman built Olympian Hiawatha train.
