Buy Canadian! Buy from Canadian hobby shops and model railroad equipment manufacturers!

Our good friend Jason Schron of Canadian based Rapido Trains manufactures excellent model railroad equipment such as this Via Rail E-Unit.

In these troubled political times we urge you to BUY CANADIAN when it comes to model railroad equipment. Support our local hobby shops. Amazon and Train World doesn't need your money, but Warehouse Hobbies and the Frog and Diamond do. Bachmann and Atlas doesn't need your support, but our good friend Jason Schron of Rapido, who has made several presentations for the WMRC, does!

Jason Shron is coming to town on February 15

You better watch out, you better not cry! You better not pout, I'm telling you why: Jason Shron is coming to town! The WMRC is hosting a special presentation by Jason Shron on Wednesday, February 15 at Canad Inns Polo Park, 1405 St. Matthews Avenue, at 7:00 PM. 

Jason is the founder and president of Rapido Trains. Rapido  has produced some of the most accurate models based upon Canadian prototypes. He is also the person with a rail car in his basement. In addition to that he is building a multi level railroad in his garage based on a portion of the  Kingston Subdivision in the 1980's.

 Jason's presentation will be about his home layout. He has used some novel techniques in the construction of the layout, from bench work to wiring. Hear about his dream layout and why he chose to model the fall and mainly passenger operations. Jason will also give some insight into the model manufacturing industry and where he sees the hobby is going.

It's free, it's open to the public, and no reservations are required. So be good for goodness sake, or you mom won't let you go!
