JRM Layout Show History
You can see a complete history of the shows the JRM layout has been displayed at here.

JRM Layout - First Exhibition, October 2004
We first exhibited the JRM layout at the Great Scale Model Train show in Timonium MD October 9-10, 2004. The layout concept was started in the spring of 2004 to potentially do a layout for the National N Scale Convention taking place the summer of 2004 in the washington DC area. We were not able to develop the layout in time for the convention, so debuted the layout at the GSMT show in the fall.
