  • PMRA Annual Train Show

    The Pueblo Model Railroad Assco. annual train show is this coming Saturday 8/17 from 9-5 and Sunday 8/18 from 9-4. Located in the historic Pueblo Train Depot in downtown Pueblo, Colorado. We have joined up with the Pueblo Railway Foundation who will be providing train rides and lunches out of the 'Sliding Door Diner' for both days of the show. We have operating module groups, vendors, door prizes, swap tables, tourist railroad representatives and Operation Life Saver at this show this year. Admission is $5.00 per person children under 12 yrs free. If you are in the Colorado area this weekend please stop by and say hello. Let me know you are a RR-line forums member.

      No Kris there isn't. Although you are welcome to bring some display models to the show if you wish. You would probably have to bring a table to set them on because all of our available tables have been sold out. I know one of our members is doing the same thing.

        Thanks Bill, I'll probably just bring the cabins for clinics.

            Thanks Bill for all the work which you, John Denny and the rest of your crew did. I also want to acknowledge the couple of forum members who dropped by and said "HI". I even had a 'long time forum lurker' watch and participate in a couple of clinics. So Kris, I hope to hear from you soon. (Yep... same name, easy for me to remember...)

            The old depot was probably the most 'railroad rich' venue I have done clinics in. And for visitors to the historic Pueblo Train Depot in downtown Pueblo, Colorado, guys, don't forget to look-up when standing at the old time urinals.

            Anyway, again the folks from Slim-Rails want to thank the PMRA for all of the hard work and we are looking forward to next year.

              Hi Kris,

              I want to thank you and the rest of the Slim Rails members, the venders, Pueblo Railway Association and the various railroad and historical associations that showed up for the Rail Fair. I can declare this a success as we came out in the black this year. It was good sitting down and talking to you Kris. I also had a couple of forum members and those of some Yahoo groups I belong to say hello.

              The historic Pueblo Depot, where the Rail Fair was held, is featured as the center spread of the Classic Train fall 2013 issue. I'm sure this venue will be used again. The good folks of the Pueblo Railway and Historical Association told us this was the busiest weekend they have had. So I'm sure a joint venture will be used again next year. It sure was fun!!
