Trainfest in Milwaukee, WI - November 10th

Two weeks ago already, Chuck and I spent a few hours roaming around Trainfest in the Wisconsin Exposition Center at State Fair Park. We go every year to see the layouts and new displays, view historical booths, and visit with our growing number of railfan friends.

There weren't a lot of people in attendance when we arrived on Saturday morning around 9:30 AM but before we left at 12:30 PM, the place was pretty lively. We like to go early and get a parking spot a couple of blocks away from the paid parking area when the weather is nice. And it was really nice on Saturday, November 10th.

It's great to see all the children having fun and watching the trains intently. The layouts are impressive enough for adults but the kids just love some of them. The Lego setup is always a favorite of the youngsters.

I've finally uploaded two clips to YouTube from our 3 hour visit to Trainfest and hope you enjoy them.
