NMRA MCoR Standards Convention & Show - Wichita, KS .... JC Layout Tour Pix

June 12, the NMRA Mid Continent Region Standards Convention and show was in Wicita, KS. Friday night there was a layout tour. Additional layout lighting was added to existing lights before the Tour. The following pics are from my layout about 5:30PM and about 9:30 PM.
Although none are shown in these pix, 42 guests visited the HedgeApple-RioGram RR.
Closer views:
Vinita township in the foreground, Ozark, AR in the background [ far right behind trees ] Bear cave behind caboose. POL opns at bottom left. [Flash used]
Cimarron Horse Ranch w/Mikado Beef train pulling into view.
Lighted layout w/RioGrande Heavyweights - 9:30PM, on the HARG. Blue floods are in trees to give moonlight effect.
Ozark mountain village with new lighting.
New Army Petroleum combat Fuel Depot with Lighting.
The visitors were from NE, AR, OK, KS, IA, and CO. Over half of the guests were from NE. All Tour participants seems to greatly enjoy the Tour. A "Can You Find It?" sheet was provided to visitors to locate details on the pike. The HARG RR has many details and dioramas that are based on family persons, autos, structures, and events.
Sorry there weren't any pix of the visitors.... I got busy running my mouth and forgot to get the camera.
