Well, despite Mother Nature dropping a wonderful 6″+ of snow overnight, and making the roads all over the region very treacherous, the 11th Annual NF Model Railway Show was still a decent success.??4 vendors were not able to make it due to the road conditions, but those that did make it to the show had no complaints.? This was our first major fundraiser of the year, and it is always a great help to the Museum.? This years show once again had vendors from across Ontario, selling everything from photos to videos, to model trains.?We also had 4 layouts, Z, N, HO,?& G.? ?The NRM had a display as did the Fort Erie Historic Railway Association, a group raising funds to cosmetically restore and preserve CNR 4-8-4 #6218 in Fort Erie.? My thanks go to all the vendors who made it out to the show, and of course to all of our hard working Museum volunteers that gave up their day to work the NRM table, canteen, door and kitchen.? Our next major railway show is our Fall Model Railway Show which will be held on October 30th, 2011, at Optimist Park Hall.?

Also, stay tuned for more info on the first Niagara Railway Museum golf tournament.? Details will be coming shortly.
