It's been a long time, but worth the wait! Many modules have been overhauled and tracks relayed where needed ensuring smooth running, even with very long trains.

Here's a glimpse of one of those long trains cruising around the layout on display at The Burnaby Railway (BCSME) over several weekends in August and September 2022.

Good news! The Vancouver TraiNgang will be at the Burnaby Railway (British Columbia Society of Model Engineers) over three weekends in August - from August 20th to September 5th.

The layout will be operating and open to view on August 20th, 21st, 27th, 28th, and September 3rd, 4th and 5th during the Burnaby Railway (BCSME) weekend operating hours. For directions and more information about the Burnaby Railway, go to their website B.C. Society of Model Engineers

Here's some old views from a 2009 show... Mostly Vancouver TraiNgang N-Trak, including the inside curve and a few modules not seen in several years...

OK, not the best title, but the video in this report does feature a lot of glasses (2,840, in fact)!

It's not N scale, but it's sure entertaining!

Raise your glass to Miniatur Wunderland, and toast their world record!

The news is not good folks! We were advised today that the show has been canceled for 2021.

Arrangements and deposits etc., would normally have to be finalized now, but because of the uncertainty and risks created by the pandemic, the organizers feel that there is no guarantee that the show would actually be able to take place in November so have reluctantly decided to cancel it for this year, and hope to resume the event in 2022.
