    Congrats! You made it! The layout looked awesome! Thanks for being part of the 70th TCA Convention. Thank you for giving those of us who could not make it a glimpse of the convention! It looked like a lot of fun and I am definitely excited for it to be in Texas in 2026. Thank you, Chris, for all you do to support and share the hobby! -Ricky

    Hi Chris, what a great opportunity to have the TCA Convention right there in your town, very cool! Enjoyed seeing the convention hall and particularly the Raritan Valley Hi-Railers, all the detail was amazing. I am glad you had a good time sharing your railroad with so many convention goers. The layout looked awesome and I am sure they all had a great time. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Bill B.

    Trains always know when to act up . Same thing happened to me at Christmas .
    3 sets running for a few days before with 3 different layouts without problems .
    Friends come over for dinner and see the trains and all 3 decide to act up with 3 different problems .

    Raritan Valley Hi-Railers layout looked spectacular. I'm sure all the folks that visited were grateful for your generosity in sharing your layout and expertise.

    Glad you had a successful tour. As a fellow educator I had to laugh at the engines " going on strike " and not working. We can prep the kids all week., are sure they know what they are doing and then at open house, BAM it's as if they never heard the stuff LOL LOL We just take it in stride and go on.

    And just when you think you have everything running perfectly it throws your curveball all the time, and truly Chris you're really out will never be finished you always find something to do with it

    Thanks for filming my club's layout. Unfortunately, I couldn't head out there with them. Hopefully, we will be in the Greenburg show in Edison, NJ, in August.

    Hey Chris, another great video. Just remember the part about no progress when you see my layout in July.

    Glad it went well and you got through it, lots of work! But yeah, you jinxed yourself saying how well everything was working. 🤣

    It isn't just the quality of the buildings, it's also the incredible interior detail.

    Congratulations on a very successful layout tour for the TCA Convention! It is inevitable for something to 'act up' at the most inopportune time. I'm sure you handled you with the utmost poise and grace. And, of course, your audience was probably extremely forgiving as well!! Wish I could have been there but it wasn't in the cards this time!! Keep up the great work and representation of our hobby!!

    Hey Chris! I want to thank you for letting me know the other day that METCA only had two of those RBMN SD50’s left, I placed an order the next morning and I can’t wait for it!

    This whole week was an awesome experience , Im so glad our club was able to be there for one of its members and help you out in the biggest event . Just seeing the busses in the cul-de-sac at your house was once in a lifetime experience . Congrats on the huge success of the tours , it was a lot of work and a ton of planning and I'm glad it all worked out .

    You know as well as anyone else, that when you go to show it off, that is when everything is likely to go wrong, you can test everything out for weeks ahead of time, but when showtime comes, Murphy's Law always takes effect!
