World's Greatest Hobby Train Show February, 2006
The WGH show came to Dullas Expo center in Northern Virginia. We were accepted to display at the show and given a great spot front and center in the exhibit hall! We had a lot of great feedback by the visitors who were mostly families about the uniqueness of our layout. This show also saw the debut of our video wall in one of our high rise buildings. This was created by using a small digital personal video recorder mounted inside the building. |

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.
