    Unfortunately we’re not gonna be able to make it to the Amherst show this year🙁. That said it is on our list to go to at some point! Our good friend, Lucy Dormont, the social media manager for the NMRA, will be there though. Also on our list to go to is the York train show in York Pennsylvania. So, we’re hoping to make both of these shows in the near future🙂
