On my way home from the Greater Houston Train Show.
This was certainly one of the shows of all time (in a good way).
And yes, I did make poor financial decisions (thank you Dad for enabling me even more).
I will share the consequences of my actions later.

20 years ago, I went to my first train show. I don’t know what day it was but it was definitely during winter. So today, I went to the Greenberg train show not far from where I live.

N scale first responder train. Sorry, don’t recall which display this was at. Pretty sure it was in the Better Living Center building.
A train yard with various Norfolk Southern locomotives and a line of passenger cars. Same layout as the previous photo.
Here are things at the Amherst Railroad Hobby Show that my son pointed to and said, “Dad, can you take a picture of that?”

The front of the NRM's 2025 booth space at the train show. The tables are full of models and form a U-shape. Inside the booth are a couple of visitors perusing the models.
The Northwest Railway Museum will have space at the Great America Train Show in Puyallup, WA this weekend! Come say hi, learn about the Museum's plans for this year, and perhaps support our efforts by buying a model or signing up to volunteer!

Burlington County Model Railroad Club Flyer, for winter open houses, featuring train photos and open house dates.
Open house season is coming, so I made a poster for my model railroad club's open houses. If you are anywhere near South Jersey, you should stop by this winter. #trainshow #modeltrain #modelrailroad #southjersey

New Haven train made out of Lego on the third track with a Union Pacific train on the 4th track. Additional trains are beyond them with a NELUG member behind the table and the author’s finger in the upper left.
Back end of the New Haven train with the front of a Santa Fe.
The full Santa Fe train with additional trains behind. There is a NELUG sign on the left with a train yard behind it.
Double tracks in the foreground with a pyramid shaped building on the corner of a road in the background. A large yellow building is to the left of it. Three cars are on the road including Speed Racer’s Mach 5 which appears to have been pulled over by a police car for speeding.
Yeah, I’ve got MORE photos of the NELUG layout at the 2012 Railroad Hobby Show. (I’ve got enough for a couple more posts too! Then I’ll move on…)

Close up of a building built on a dock in the water by the beach pictured earlier
A large harvester in a small field of wheat. Lego train track curves around the field into a train yard.
A view of the train yard from the reverse angle as what was shown in a previous post. The author’s finger is in the upper left. These photos were taken with an iPhone 4…because it was THAT long ago!
A closer view of an express passenger train in the train yard. Some random shipping containers are to the left of it among some green Lego trees.
Yet more photos of the NELUG setup at the 2012 Railroad Hobby Show…

A train repair shop is along the Lego train route with a Santa Fe train emerging. The foreground has a house, roads, and a beach on the right
Here’s what’s in the water next to the beach. Lots of boats! The train continues off in the distance of the background.
There’s a big gray mountain with two tunnels and track leading into each. A minifigure appears to be zip lining down from the summit.
The mountain is on the corner of the layout and the track curves inside to come out the other end. The mountain is gray with sparse trees scattered about. On the side of the mountain facing the viewers is a dedication written in bricks which reads “Rose Kaumanns Ward - 1918-2010”
Another round of photos from the NELUG setup from 2012…

A busy Leog farm with a blue barn and train tracks in the foreground
View of the farm from a bit further back. Two sets of train tracks are in the foreground.
Around the corner, a look at the farm from the right side with other models in the foreground and a set of tracks leading into a mountain tunnel on the left (photos of that later)
A couple round red barns to the right of the previous photos. The train yard from the first series of photos is in the background. A train passes quickly on the closest set of tracks.
Four more photos of the same show…
