This is going to be a costly and time consuming hobby huh? At least I have my foam cut to shape, waiting for the grass stuff to dry... can't wait, must be patient.

Their train connection to this thread? they are called the Flyers and their name hails from the train history of fullerton. Heck their mascot is a cayote which was a frequent visitor to the fullerton train tracks. Ok back to your regularly scheduled topic.

Originally Posted By alexbook Just came from there. Pretty neat stuff, including lots of amazing model train.

Less exciting, for me, was the OCTA bus that was available for kids to play in/on (and no, I'm not kidding). Also, Michael Broggie was there signing his DLRR books.

What a sad sign of the times when something like that is part of our common existence, to the extent that someone would think of commemorating it on their model railroad.
