For those in Central Illinois, this weekend is the 30th Annual Lincoln Square -- Urbana Model Railroad Show and Swap Session on Saturday, March 17 (10am-6pm) and Sunday, March 18 (11am-5pm).
The Illinois Terminal Division, NMRA will be there, with a table at the south entrance to the mall. We'll have a small operating exhibit and you can find out more about our efforts to link up model railroaders in the division for education, interchange, and fun.
The show has operating model railroad layouts in scales from N to G, as well as vendors of a variety of railroad-related items. Admission is FREE!
There is a model display and contest from noon to 4pm on Sunday.

A friendly bump back to the front page.
I got the display module working. Things go back and forth well with the Peerless reversing controller. However, I haven't managed to get the Peerless delay working that will allow the loco to pause briefly at each end of the line. Maybe I'll figure it out today with advice i'll find at the show.

Hi Mike,
Yes, we'll be there tomorrow. I'll likely take the shift after 2pm, since I'm in charge of the module, such as it is, and will need to cart it home. However, someone will be there from the start time, which is 11am. Our table is just inside the south entrance to the mall, next to the Chinese restaurant.
Maybe I'll get to see ya there. Would be nice to meet you finally
