March 5 was the day for the big train show in Kansas City and we took the grandsons to check it out.
 |
| There was a big layout of Thomas the Train engines |
 |
| It was a big hit! |
 |
| Next up was a On30 scale Layout with a Colorado theme - my favorite |
 |
| Bennett had a bird's eye view |
 |
| The Bachmann display had many examples of the Thomas Trains they market |
 |
| Layouts were of all sizes and heights |
 |
| A complete scale model circus with operating rides |
 |
| Several model railroads made from Lego's were on display |
 |
| We liked the firemen feeding a pizza to the dinosaur |
 |
| The Hulk in action |
 |
| Emery ran a wireless controller at the Lionel display |
 |
| These were very well done models of the means that Boeing aircraft fuselages are transported from Wichita to Seattle for final assembly. |
 |
| Lots of time in building this roller coaster |
 |
| Running another layout |
 |
| Ships and waterways were modelled |
 |
| 3D printers were running showing the latest technology for making model railroad parts |
 |
| Z scale is VERY tiny and allows the builder to pack a lot of scenery into the space with the trains |
 |
| Photographers were set up with props |
 |
| Garden railroads were set up at eye level for the kids to follow along |
 |
| Several engines that operate using real steam were on display. They have small burners that boil water for steam |
 |
| Waiting for the train to come by |
