You are invited to the best Train Show MGRS can produce

Image
This will be a fantastic display with 450 feet of track operating seven or eight trains on 3 levels.  Interactive and exciting.  The way a Train Display was meant to be!    Think about What We Can do! We can introduce G scale railroading to thousands and thousands of new people! We can help bring back the stories and memories of good times and past experiences with trains.  We can create good memories that will last for a lifetime.  Children will remember the day that they made the trains run! We can continue to enjoy trains, have fun and share experiences with each other and we can meet and make new friends.   Our combined effort can help raise a substantial contribution from the Mall to help support MGRS.  This is a magnificent event in a clean, bright, comfortable environment and it is in the best location that we could  ever hope to have.  There is only one thing that could go wrong. . . Don't let THAT Happen.  We need You, I re...

Two Train Operation

Here is another short video which shows the operation of two trains at the same station stop.    Please take a look: (Note:  This was just a test and a power supply was used that did not have a rheostat which is why the test train is moving at top speed.)

Recent video NS train crossings

I don't even know how I got this (some Google email alert?)  Anyway, shows Eastern Ohio region, several trains blowing through crossings.  Makes me glad I don't drive around there at night!  Good sounds also.  Take a look: Click here: PS:  REMEMBER ERIC'S STEAM-UP.

Steamup in Phippsburg

I will host a steamup here at my Winnegance and Quebec Railway on Saturday the 22nd. You are welcome to stop by. If you have a steamer, by all means bring it along. If you run battery power, you can run on my line too! If you would like to come by, please give me a call 3860128. I plan to have soup and snacks, additions are welcome. --Eric Schade

Ein Tag bei Andi Engi

OK what am I saying?   Here is a video from Garden Railway magazine that anyone can see on You Tube. It is from Switzerland.  Take a look.  Click here:

A new video from Eric.

  Eric is getting good!  He come's up with something new each time he creates a video.  I can see he is about to launch a career as a movie maker.    As Eric said " I had a good run today on the Winnegance and Quebec.  As I do, I made another little video of the run: http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=JBZZdrjIO1I We had a nice fall day which made for good steam scenery.  Keep an eye out for the moose along the trackside!" Thank you Eric - Very well done and fun to watch!
