Be sure to check in the Coming Events listings for details on the show.  Over 9 acres of railroading in 4 buildings PLUS an operating narrow gauge steam locomotive outside the Better Living Center.

S.D. Warren Co.'s Baldwin #2 will be operating under steam both days.  It was recently restored to operating condition at Boothbay Railway Village and they are bringing it to the show.  Its whistle will announce the opening of the show on both days, drowning out a diesel air horn.

You still have until January 20th to buy your tickets online and receive them before the show.  Avoid waiting in the cold to purchase your ticket.
