Will Bill Dentons train layout be at the Lyons high school train show I would like to see it again? Please reply to this message.

Yes, Bill Denton\'s amazing Kingsbury layout will be on display at the LaGrange show later in March.

What date will it be on display and times? Thanks.

The show is next week, March 24, at the field house at Lyons High School. I will be there alongside Bill Denton displaying my newest N-scale layout depicting the Milwaukee Road where it ran in front of Wrigley Field, circa 1973, during the final days of operation this far north. My layout, really more of a diorama, is under construction at this point with Wrigley Field as a flat and six other buildings in place. The Milwaukee Road tracks curve across Clark and Addison with one set out of service as it was towards the end.
My other N-scale layout depicting operations on Lakewood between School and Wellingon in the same era is in storage. It made two previous appearances at the Lyons show.

Be sure to say \"Hello\" at the LT train show this weekend. The show is from 9am to 5pm. This will probably be the last year I bring the Kingsbury layout to the show. It\'s really a pain to get out of my basement, especially just for one day. Thanks.
