Well another Trainfest is in the history books. No attendance numbers were announced but the weather in Milwaukee was not typical for November with temperatures near 70 on Saturday and in the 60's on Sunday but then the rain came and it is currently 29 degrees in Milwaukee as I'm typing this.
Well several members of the TRAINS/Kalmbach Forum Family gathered at the Kalmbach Booth for the annual photo. Below are those that were in attendance. Photo was taken by Pat Shaver, wife of Carl Shaver

Keith, the guy holding the sign is Jay Eaton ("JEaton"). I'm on the opposite side of Mary. I should have been holding something, like my gut...in!The fact that three of us, myself included, were in short-sleeved shirts bears testimony to the great weather for the festival this year.

Sorry about that. I think I got it right now. I was never good with names. Thanks for coming great to put a face with a name.

Thanks Pat for this year's good photo of the group.

Pat Shaver has a steady hand that is for sure, given some of the clowning that was going on. It was a fine continuation of a tradition that now goes back several years. This is the first time Jim Hediger could join us which was a nice touch
The official attendance for 2012 Trainfest has been announced: over 25,500 folks, many of them kids.
Dave Nelson
I was there, just not able to get away from the layout I was at.
Any chance you could Photochop me in Keith?
