Mall Move out and Winter Wonderland

On Monday February 5th a crew of MGRS members packed and loaded our equipment into the trailer for upcoming events. It includes engines, rolling stock, track and electronics.

Shopping for trains at the Mall.....

The tables and mountain built by the Mall are still in place. One of the options for the 2018 Holiday Train display is to move the tables out where the giant chess and checkers were in 2017. This is a larger space and may allow our display to be wider.

Some equipment and props used only at the Mall is being stored in one of the storage areas we used during the 2017 event

Parking on the Sidewalk
