TECO Model Train Show

Papa, Griffen, and AJ went to the TECO Model Train Show today. What a hoot! By far, the winning attention grabber was a Boxcar Race put on by the Youth in Model Railroading (they have a Colorado Springs rep). Never saw that done before! We spent half our time there participating in this race. The truly amazing thing was winning a show door prize: one seat on the Pikes Peak Cog Railway! Just so happens that we've been planning that trip for these two for some time now. All the photos are here.

They often have a "scavenger hunt" which
does keep their attention.


There was a rock climber on the cliff at left.

First time I'd seen an entire layout of monorail.

(Jamie does their website.)

We bought a boxcar for them to race.

AJ/Griffen's car is in the middle.
