CARM Copetown Show 2015

Recently-released/announced Rapido Products on display.

This Past Sunday I had the opportunity to attend the annual Canadian Association of Railway Modelers show at Copetown, ON. This show is quite different from most other trains shows in that the theme is the display of high-quality modeling and prototype research rather than the typical flea-market wheeling-and-dealing at your average train show. I particularly like this show because it often features many operating layouts, something that seems increasingly less common at the flea market shows. It is always inspiring to me to see a completed layout, or even one that is partly completed to see how other modelers innovated or overcame obstacles to create a model of something that they are passionate about.

One downfall of the show is that given its’ time in the year, it often suffers from bad weather which seemed to be the case this year. There were a handful of empty tables and it was noticeably less crowded in the aisles. Only one operating HO layout (the Ontario and Quebec Railway) was present but a handful of larger-scale switching layouts were in attendance; I tend to think the poor road conditions kept a lot of people from going to the show. As always, a number of historical societies and photo dealers were in attendance as well as several model manufacturers, such as Rapido Trains.

More Rapido goodies!

Rapido brought samples of several of their recent projects, including the LRC locomotive, FPA-4 (A and B-units), FL-9 and F40PH-2. A small test track served to demonstrate the models’ operating (and to me, more impressively) sound performance. They indeed put a lot of effort into each of their products. Surprisingly though, there was little mentioned about their recently-announced RDC project. They did however bring a small switching layout to demonstrate their Rail-crew recent announcements, a magnetic uncoupling gizmo and switch motor (with operating switch stand). It will be interesting to see how this goes for them, though I can’t imagine that having another supplier of switch motors is a bad thing.

A pre-production sample of their MLW FPA-4; despite the room full of people, the sound was still quite impressive on the unit. 

Another noteworthy item at the show was George’s Trains line of new acrylic paints (Proto-Paint), which fortunately features a number of Canadian railway colours.

Prairie Shadows' custom run of CN-painted Intermountain F7A and B units were also on display.

‘Til next time,

Cheers,

Peter.

Not a lot to show for and now N scale

This Fall has been quite busy for me and the modeling and the layout has come to a standstill.  This past week I was on the run it seems everyday after work.  I squeezed a few minutes of decaling out this week and that's about it.  That decaling would be on my Ex-KCS SD50.  I put VMID reporting marks on it and patched the red KCS on the long hood.  I wanted to cover up the entire KCS in red but it hard to do with white trim film.  So I'm going with a faded KCS maybe with a stripe across it. This is common for short line units that I have seen. Here's a prototype: BB GP40-3  An example would be this model I did for the Buckingham Branch Railroad:

This was a loco I did for a customer back in 2011.  Based on the prototype still running in this scheme.

I went to a train show last weekend and my sons talked me into a n scale layout.  My oldest had been all over this for about a year now.  I was not sure that he was ready, but I took the plunge and bought a huge lot of Kato Uni-track and loco and a couple of cars.  This past Sunday, we build a "L" shaped layout in their room.

Simple construction and doesn't  take up much space.

Definitely got the Detroit Tiger theme going on in here!

Here the GP38-2 the boys picked out.  Good runner and right now we are sticking to DC.  It can be converted to DCC if needed.

Here are the 2 cars the boys picked out.  Nicely detailed and they run well.

The overall scene.  Got to get some fascia for the background and a few more turnouts.  Not bad for a few hours of work on Sunday afternoon.

Hear is the Ex-KCS SD50 that will be working on the Midland.  The 6 axle power is a new trend on the VMID.  A tsunami was installed in in and being a Proto 2000 loco, it runs and well and is very heavy.

Here's another 6 axle power loco.  It's a Kato mid-production run.  Picked it up at the RPM meet for a great price.  It too will be patched for the VMID.

Epping Model Train show

Went out to the Epping Model show today, was great to see some modelling in person.
 Ive been a bit slack lately and still need to buy some track and point motors to proceed forward with my layout.
Anyway, saw some nice layouts, a few not seen before. It was quiet when I was there so I spoke to several operators about their layouts. I questioned 1 operator at "Yendys) about their OHW/Catenary for some time.
It is all scratchbuilt and is impressive in detail. The blocks of units on the layout also was well done, 1 in particular getting comments from several patrons. The operator removed parts of the block to show me that it was made of cardboard! You wouldnt know it from the outside though..cardboard eh?..

Anyway, here are some pics I took, new camera so some are blurred.etc.

Waterfall, very nice, tidy modelling, scaled well.The ballast looked nice.

Yendys, spent some time here as this is within my area of interest, modern suburban electrics. Some of you may recall I talked about ballast quality on layouts, this one had nice ballast, smooth and well coloured.

Aracoola(?)

7mm scale(O scale), Beautiful, I cant even look at this stuff, too nice, too much fine detail, I may be converted....move on....now!

Punchbowl CS, I didnt actually catch the name of this one? though PCS it is I believe.

Nice to see a dedicated layout for suburban electrics. Wonder who could tackle Hornsby or Flemo? Looks good, appears to be in progress.

Bergs stand, light on charlie ash this week so none of these this time..

There were other layouts, but I didnt get shots of them, all were good, I recall an N scale VR layout, plus small Euro(German?) layout run by 2 ladies, and 1 called Boorawa(?), meant to get shots, looked nice, nice modelling, great colour use. I like layouts that look like a painting, Boorawa did.

Great show!
