With work today and tomorrow I was only able to swing by briefly
this AM - It's a great setup/layout. The DCC seemed to be working!
I liked the pump-jacks (a must have for Alberta me thinks) and the
giant storage tank (and refinery towers). The Whyte Ave. buildings
were recognizable as such - a credit to their builders. I overheard
a lady telling her friend "That's the building I used to work in!"
Those not able to attend in person can look forward to official photos.
