    Train Shows in Texas

    Thanks guys, I will see what I can come up with. If nothing else I guess we will just go fishing tomorrow. We will have to go early because it will be in the 100's. Today the high was 103 and feels like 112. Now that is hot.

    Train Shows in Texas

    I was looking for shows, my wife has cut me off on the train buying for awhile. :( I know about the one in Temple but I am not sure where or when they have it. I was hoping that there was a link that showed dates and location.
