The Vancouver TraiNgang visited Port Moody in October 2013 as part of the city's celebration of it's centennial and railroad history.

The Tri-Cities Now sent a reporter/photographer to the layout in the Port Moody town hall on October 19th, 2013.

Here's a link to some fine photos by Chung Chow, in one of the newspaper's galleries... and no prizes for guessing that Canadian Pacific liveries featured prominently among the trains running, and in these photos.

This weekend (10-11 Nov 2012) sees the possibly last annual Trains fall show at the Cameron Rec Centre in Burnaby. Given the show is held on the Remembrance day weekend creates a conflict situation for many of us who are torn between show commitments and turning out at the local cenotaph for the annual Remembrance Day ceremonies.

With that in mind, it was wonderful to see this vignette on one of the OO scale layouts on display...

On the 1st of September, vancouvertraingang.com will move to vancouvertraingang.ca - still under construction. Arrangements will be made to forward vancouvertraingang.com to the new domain so that external links will continue to work.

We hope there'll be no complications at changeover time, and that the event proceeds in an orderly fashion, but please be patient if there are glitches, as several different people and organizations are involved.
