WAKEFIELD, MA Four operating layouts in three different scales, movies and over eighty tables of displays are just some of the features to be found at this year's North Shore Model Train Show being held on Saturday, September 21. The show will run from 10am until 4 pm at the Americal Civic Center on Main Street, Wakefield. In addition, 8 scale miles of operating layout may be viewed on Saturday and Sunday September 22 at the club headquarters, also in downtown Wakefield, behind the Brothers Deli (formerly called the Hazelwood Restaurant). Access can be gained from Princess Street just off Main Street. This particular show is one of the growing numbers that caters to families and those with a passing interest as well as the dedicated hobbyist. Information about model railroads and the prototype will be especially useful to people new to the hobby, or considering taking up the hobby. Northeast N-Trak will have a 15 x 23 foot layout with command control and radio control throttles. The LBG layout provides a contrast in scales. Lunch will be available at the Americal Civic Center. More information about the show or the club is available by calling (617) 245-4742 weekday evenings. The North Shore Model Railroad Club is an educational non-profit organization.
