Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis WI. Several Kalmbach magazine staff members will be there. So will be a group of us who have been posting on these various Kalmbach forums for many years - and who gather for a group photo each year. Join us if you can!
The annual TRAINS, Model Railroader, Garden Railroads, Classic Toy Trains, Classic Trains group photo will be at the Kalmbach Publishing booth at Trainfest.
Trainfest celebrates 45 years this year. In a tradition started last year the show features a local railroad. This year the Milwaukee Road is the featured railroad. Check out special photo display of the history of the Milwaukee in Milwaukee and other places.
This years photo will be at 12:30pm at the Kalmbach booth on Saturday November 12, 2016. Keith Schmidt is running trains at his railroad club until 12 noon so with time to put his trains away we figured 12:30pm would work. Please if you are at Trainfest and a member of any Kalmbach Forum stop by. It is interesting to see how those that have been in several photos change through out the years. I will bring the traditional cheesy sign. Unfortunately we have already heard that Carl Shaver and his faithful spouse Pat who has been our photographer for the last several years cannot join us. Dang.
Again the Forum Photo will be at 12:30pm on Saturday November 12, 2016 at the the Kalmbach Booth near the north side entrance to the show. Please Join In.
