We just got back from the NMRA National Convention in Indy. We had a GREAT time.

The host hotel (Westin downtown) was great; all the clinics I attended were terrific; the trade show was great.

Most of our time was spend at the KC 2018 Convention booth, with Joe and Rick and Steve (and spouses). We sold nearly 70 early-bird registrations for KC, so that was good.

While I didn't go on any tours this time, I heard great things about them, and the busses seemed to run on time.

Indy is a great city, and I want to go back and do the touristy things that I missed while I was otherwise occupied.

Joe and I ran on the Operations Road Show, a time-table and train-order modular layout. We had a good time and didn't screw up too badly. Near the end of the session, we got Train #1, the hottest train on the layout, but time ran out before we got very far.



Panel presentation on "What I would do differently on my next layout". My buddy, Steve, is the handsome one in the middle.
