17-9 1:48:28	soccrdad30	for the life of me I cannot remember the company name
17-9 1:48:08	soccrdad30	if I remember, there use to be a z scale train store (20 years ago?) that the guy would post pictures of trainfest and any other train show he attended and actually got a photo of Thomas showing a small hand held Z layout
17-9 1:46:54	ejshelton	It is a good show.....I've enjoyed it a number of times
17-9 1:46:22	rvn2001	It's a good show with lots of stuff to see.
17-9 1:46:15	GNFan	I have heard mention of Trainfest, bbut have never thought of attending.
17-9 1:41:14	soccrdad30	I remember Thomas talking about it. Him and Gayle would go to those
17-9 1:41:03	rvn2001	Ellen and I attended as visitors several times.
17-9 1:40:19	rvn2001	November 7 & 8. Woodland Scenics would probably be there demonstrating their new sound system. It's a large show.
17-9 1:39:22	soccrdad30	is that coming up?
17-9 1:39:12	soccrdad30	no, I have not
17-9 1:38:55	rvn2001	John, have you ever been to Trainfest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin?
17-9 1:37:29	soccrdad30	I would like to see that new woodland scenics sound system in action. there is supposed to be multiple ways of triggering the sound
17-9 1:36:50	GNFan	I suppose pastels make sense for textures like road grime/
17-9 1:35:50	soccrdad30	okay, np, just thought I would ask
17-9 1:35:03	rvn2001	I just haven't used anything besides paint.
17-9 1:31:35	soccrdad30	on youtube, I have been watching modelers use the Pan pastels for weathering, pigments, and painting
17-9 1:30:02	soccrdad30	ah, I use the chalks for the earth tones and black along with some white
17-9 1:29:23	rvn2001	I have chalks but have never used them.
17-9 1:28:40	soccrdad30	I grind up artist chalks
17-9 1:28:32	rvn2001	I don't even do washes.
17-9 1:27:33	soccrdad30	okay, and I do washes myself along with chalks
17-9 1:27:31	GNFan	Not I. I didn't know the existed.
17-9 1:26:52	soccrdad30	Mike or Ellen, have either of you tried to weather with Pan pastels yet?
17-9 1:26:48	rvn2001	I just dry-brush with craft paints.
17-9 1:26:33	GNFan	550 square feet would be tight for any more than a few people
17-9 1:26:07	rvn2001	No, John, I have not.
17-9 1:25:49	soccrdad30	Thom have you tried weathering with pan pastels yet?

17-9 1:23:34	soccrdad30	Mike is only used to cooking for one?
17-9 1:22:30	GNFan	Dinner at my place? Ellen knows my best (only?) dish is pasta. Maybe if they can ttolerate that it could work.
17-9 1:22:29	soccrdad30	It could be a BYOZ, Bring your own Z party
