Hi Don thank you for the reply. I was thinking about railroad and modelrailroad related events. I am quite familiar with the area around Las Vegas-Grand Canyon, probably this time I will go somewhere else (up to 5-6 hours from LV).

Dear Friends I will be in Nevada-Arizona area from Apr.23nd to Apr. 28th. Is there any event worth to visit. Thank you very much for any input. :wave: Eugen (Austria)

Its depend oif the size of the theater (how many cars). The smallest screens were about 10 m in width (30 feet) and for normal movies (old time) the ratio of the screen is 1.3 (i.e. 7,7m height). In cinemascope movies the ratio is almost 3. Anything between is OK.

I asked them and got the answer!: ) The videos will be shown on the world wide railway server of www.bahnorama-tv.com and the best ones also on www.bahntv-online.de (also available in streaming format) after the contest. :wave: You can get pictures like this one - a daily statistic...

Hi guys thank yo very much. Yesterday I also find a copy of that sign. Thank you again !

Yes we are talking about GM as General Motors and this sign was on locomotives in early fifties. I need a better copy to make (or draw) a new sign (decal) G12 model from GM in H0 scale.

Yes it would be easy, but I have no idea what was the name of this sign. On the GM WEB page there is no information.

Hi Can anybody help me with the better quality picture of this GM sign? Thanks
