6. Peißenberger Modellbahntage 2008

Pictures from the 6.Peißenberger Modellbahntage, the tri-yearly model train show organised by the Modellbahnclub Pfaffenwinkel (see www.mbc-pfaffenwinkel.de; www.modellbahn2008.de). The two-day event attracted roughly 3.500 visitors complemented by gorgeous weather. I ran a prototypical 101-car HO train Saturday morning. My friends Alain Kap and Patrick Bopp from Luxemburg showed their Bay Area switching layout.
