Gentlemen,
I was excited to discover this show and am planning on attending.  I was wondering if there is a mechanism for refunding the registration fee if for some reason I can't make it up?
Thanks,
Dave

 I am planning on coming up to the show and have a question about the contests.  In the individual model categories can the models be displayed on a small base with minimal scenery (ie:rolling stock, loco, critter on a ballasted length of track with some landscape on each side of the track) or are they to be displayed on the table or entry form?
Thanks and looking forward to the event,
Dave

Howdy!

There is a very exciting addition to this years' show.

Home Layout Tours.

On the day after the show, Sunday April 18, 2010, there are a half-dozen home layouts that will be open for touring.

The details and sign up sheets will be available on Saturday April 17, 2010 at the fifth annual Ontario Narrow Gauge Show in Schomberg, Ontario.

The Home Layouts are spread across Southern Ontario, from the Eastern reaches of Peterborough, through the GTA and out to the Niagara Region.

The Layouts will be open from noon to around dinner time.

More information will be forthcoming.

In the meantime, if there is any one else interested in opening their home layouts, please contact me.

Hi - well, I cleaned the track and ran a couple of trains, did some switching, and my dream is to get some scenery started but I'm reluctant to show so much blue foam and questionable trackage to the public! I'm also intending to work on the Feldspar Co display and don't think I have time for both. If the miraculous happens and I get a lot done, I'll let you know! I have a vision, at least...
