2011 Model Railroader Sweepstakes
Posted by Espee Black Widow on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 8:19 PM

I came across an old email regarding the 2011 Model Railroader sweepstakes and it got me wondering if they ever announced the winners. I thought the drawing was in May but I don't recall ever seeing anything in the magazine or here about who the winners were. It's possible that they listed it some where and I didn't see it. Anybody know who won it?

Your right, neither one of us won. There's alway next time.

I must have missed the results being posted. Thanks for sharing them.
