A few Traction pics and NMRA shots

I took a few pictures on the weekend, so I will throw a few on here
We were very pleased with all the questions re Traction and the "how to do this or that" .
A few visiters were inspired to start there own traction layouts , one couple who were in B C most of there lives and are know in T O, were incouraged to start a Chilliwak (spell?) interurban line with trolly poles. They miss B C and want to start this project to help them relieve homesickness.
A great hobby ,, is this
The first pic is of the Traction in Action model we operate.

Grand River Railway club had there fantastic layout there ,,,, but no overhead, and that`s a shame, because they have built great interurbans and box cars.
