I did a bit of web wandering this evening and came up with this list of
upcoming local train shows. I ignored anything in March (there were a
couple) since the lead time would be too short.

Sat Apr 7 / Sun Apr 8
White Rock Railroad Show

Sun Apr 8
NMRA PNR 7th Division
Mid Vancouver Island Model Railway Show, Nanaimo

Sun June 24
South Surrey Railroad Celebration & Swapmeet, Art Knapp Plantland, Surrey

July 31 - Aug 5th
Toy Train Operating Society National Convention, Richmond
(These guys invited us when we were at the show in Nov, it will be a BIG
show as it's their National Con.)

Sun Sept 9th
Victoria Model Railway Show

Nov 9 - 12 (main show on Sun 11th)
Trains 2001, Burnaby

Nov 32 - 25
Abbotsford Model Railroad Historical Society Xmas Model RR Show

Quite a variety! I'm sure there are some I missed, too. I will almost
certainly be out of town for the TTOS show, unfortunately (although I can
still lend track and buildings).

Do we want to do a show this spring?

We have a bit of cash from last year's Trains 2000 show to spend. What
should we spend it on?

We'd like to do  a bigger layout next time I think. There was much
discussion after the last show about tables. How to we come up with the
tables for a bigger layout?

(...) Hmm, many dates to choose from! Personally, I'd prefer to participate in one of the larger train shows, such as TTOS. However, I must say that after July I'll be quite involved in school... :( (...) How much cash did we get? Was it a part of (...) (23 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
