Took Saturday off from the store to run my small Z scale layout at sW Washington Model Train Club swap meet. Everything ran well once the mysteriously disconnected power wires were reconnected. It was great to see all of our friends get good deals on train goodies.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by to say Hello.jerry
