31st Annual Railway Festival in Manassas, Virginia on June 7, 2025

We had a display on June 7, 2025, at the 31st Annual Railway Festival in Manassas, Virginia. Participants in attendance: Robert J. Hayes, Margaret D. Keys, Constantine Hannaher, Michael C. Harrod, Ed Kohl, Scott Bertaut, Monty Smith, Jaelynn Mangis, and Sebastian. Our layout by Monty Smith.

A squall briefly dampened the display before the show started, even under the Harris Pavilion (kept open for the train clubs’ benefit when a scheduled renovation would have had us on grass by the museum or something).

WamaLTC has long been unable to cleanly assert a 100%-LEGO display (largely because of track with wider radius curves) but after a collision of one of Scott’s locomotives with a signal bridge we discover that it’s ballasted with coins!
