I’d intended to update the blog as the convention progresses but I was not able to do so. It was a good show. The convention committee announced there were about 1,500 in attendance. There was a bid by Minneapolis, MN to host the 2018 convention and by Sacramento, CA to host the 2019 convention. The 2020 convention will be hosted by St. Louis, MO.
As I decompress from the experience I’ll update the site and post photos of the show. I managed to get photos of all the contest entries.
Congratulations to Mike Engler for winning Best Of Show with a Railroad Camp from Sierra West Scale Models.
