This is an advance notice about the ETE Eastern New England chapter’s plans to sponsor a EuroEast exhibition at the upcoming Amherst Railway Society’s Railroad Hobby Show at the Big E Exposition Center in West Springfield, MA on January 27 & 28, 2018. We are especially excited that Märklin USA will be attending the show for the first time and will be co-located with the chapter’s layout in the Mallary Building.
Some of the displays and activities that are planned for the Euro East exhibition are:
- Eastern New England Chapter layouts: large H0 modular 3-rail layout, Bergbahn 2-rail DCC layout, and meter gauge Swiss themed layout.
- Kids’ layout, where children can operate an H0 scale train
- Märklin USA exhibit with demonstrations of Märklin products
- Multiple sellers of European model trains from a variety of manufacturers
- Clinics on subjects of European model railroading; 6 clinics are planned for the 2-day show
- Social gathering and dinner on Saturday evening of the show at the Munich Haus restaurant in Chicopee, MA.
Please mark your calendars and join us for this exciting weekend of European model railroading!
