Videos will show, but to whet your appetites....

The 2010 Toronto Christmas Train SHow was a very big success!

It was due to the diligent efforts of all the persons displaying--

John with his beautiful houses scene and wind turbine Bill with this Dora/Emerald night setup Jeff, Derek and Oliver with their train display Iain with his space SHIPs Calum with his space SHIP Jenn with her LEGO Christmas Mosaic Jeff and me with our Classic Space layout Jeff with this Space Engineering Bay

A few notes--

I so appreciated everyone that displayed and helped with the show (which includes you, Elizabeth! Thanks for your efforts as well! (and the muffins!!))

Oliver was fantastic in helping out where I needed him--Thanks Oliver!

The track powered monorail was a wonder to see, and easy to set up (same as setting up battery-run monorails). I have to figure out a better ‘brush system’ to keep the electrical contacts touching. Have ideas but that’ll take time...

I made up more powered track at the show for yet another loop.

The kids loved the layout at floor level. A few issues with touching (and breaking), but that’s with every show.

Ummm, whate else?

Seriously, we got huge compliments from show attendees and show organizers. The display was fantastic--again, thanks to the people above.

With that, I’m off to find a muffin and going to recuperate some of my energy
