Schomberg Show - A Forney Story

While at the Schomberg Narrow Gauge show I was getting a good look at David Woodhead's  narrow gauge models historical display. On the display there was a nice looking Forney. David explained that this model was built by good friend Chris Creighton many years ago...George Dutka

For something built a long time ago it looks really good.

Schomberg Narrow Gauge Show - A Second Look

David Woodhead's models on display on his module.

Here we have a few more views from the Schomberg Narrow Gauge Show...George Dutka

On the modelers contest table this year had a small HO narrow gauge engine that has been 3-D printed with a few added detail parts applied.

How would you like to build your model cars from cutouts found in card-stock booklets. That is what they did when modeling in the 1940's. The gentleman who now is in his late 80's built these models as a 12 year old. He had a really nice display of his work.
