As many of you know there is a tradition for a group photo taken at the Kalmbach booth at Milwaukee's Trainfest of those of us who frequent the various Kalmbach forums (some might even recall when we had Forum Member t-shirts printed up, thanks to our original moderator, Erik Bergstrom). 

Keith Schmidt and I have been keeping that photo tradition going and we hope to continue it in 2012.

We have had large and small groups.  For those that are attending and visit the Forums hosted here at Kalmbach we will meet at the Kalmbach Publishing Display at Trainfest at 12 Noon. 

Trainfest is one of the largest Model Railroad/Train Shows in the US.  With over 140,000 square feet the emphasis is on operating model railroads of all scales.  There are also hobby shops, manufacturers, historica societies and more.   It is NOT a swap meet in any way.

Trainfest is put on by the Wisconsin Southeastern Division of the Midwest Region of the NMRA.  Over 20,000 people usually attend the two days of Trainfest.  To find out more including coupons check out www.trainfest.com 

Where: Wisconsin State Fair Park Exposition Building

When : Saturday November 10th and Sunday November 11th  9am to 5:30pm Both Days. 

So .... the Kalmbach Publishing Display at 12noon on Saturday.  Last year's photo is below:

I am just bumping up my own posting.  Shameless but it works!  See you Saturday at Trainfest.
