Good evening,

It's time for another Marklin-users.net get together in Barrie, Ontario, Saturday September 9,2017

A model train event geared for Marklin HO model train enthusiasts and open to all lovers of model trains!

Time: High Noon!

Yes you read right, 12 noon because we are going to start the meeting with a meet and greet during lunch time in my backyard and I will provide a BBQ lunch with homemade hamburgers with all the delicious trimmings! Drinks of course, both wobbly pops or not wobbly pops!
Drool

Agenda:

Scenery techniques: How to use the Noch Grassmaster on a rolling mountain side. Doing it fast and oh so easy!

Marklin running session. Bring your Marklin trains and let them run on a large Marklin K track layout. Cameras optional but highly recommend. MFX and digital only.

Having problems with your Marklin equipment? We're here to help you, one of us surely will be able to help you with your problem.

Marklin swap meet!

Please post or PM interest, all are welcome!

Michel

Hi, Michel:

As I told you, I will be on a plane to Vancouver on Sept 9; as a result, I will have to pass. Sad

Have fun.

Michel,

Thanks for hosting the "Toronto Area" Marklin get-together. Lots of interesting topics discussed. It was good to see the "local" Marklinists again!

Missed you Silvano (Baggio)!

Cheers,

Harold.

Unfortunately, I was once again not able to make the trip to Ontario to attend.
Hopefully at some point, there will be an occasion to make the trip from la Belle Province

Harold,

Thank you for the nice comments, Yes we missed Silvano!

We had a record of six diehard Marklin-user.net members attend.

Thank you Roland, Jon, Ali, Harold, Frank and Myles!

Sadly I forgot to take pictures and anyways we know what we look like!

From one of our discussions, I would like to state that Marklin is alive and well here in Ontario thanks to Westend Trains Inc. We are all in agreement that Mike makes this hobby fist rate with good product selection and especially his expert service.ThumpUp Notable mentions were John's HobbyThumpUp and out of province Hobby TechThumpUp and Euro Rail Hobbies & More.ThumpUp Without these fine establishments it would be difficult to be a Marklin train enthusiast!


Thank you Juhan, without you there would be none of us, the Canadian Marklin-user.net members!

Long live, longue vie, lang lebe, lang leve, länge leve, çok yaşa, lank lewe, længe leve, לאנג לעבן, lunga vita, حياة طويلة Marklin-user.net! Cool


Michel
