ETE EuroWest & EuroEast train shows


 

I belong to an organization called European Train Enthusiasts



for a few years now. Anually they have 2 train shows, EuroEast & EuroWest.

I was wondering if any z-scalers had planned on attending this year? It might be a good
opportunity to show off european z scale trains. Last year at EuroWest no z scale layouts
were shown. however the Marklin Rep/Booth was there and had some z scale. That
exposure became my inspiration to dive into z scale finally!

I thought this might be a good oportunity for a individual, group or module club to set up
a layout, show trains etc. I am hoping to at least bring a diorama or small layout
depending on how much I build till then. I think the crowds will enjoy it. The shows get
larger each year and I think this is the perfect place for z scale.

EuroWest 2006 will be held in the Bay Area (San Carlos) CA on August 19-20, 2006.??
EuroEast 2006 will be held in Marietta, PA on August 4-6, 2006.?



is the website w/ more info. There is also a yahoo group for ETE.

Hi, The DC Z-Bend Track group has tried to get together a display for EuroEast for the last couple of years, but we did (and are doing again) a big display at NTS and we were all just wipped out by August. Maybe we will try again next year. One of our group is actually on the planning committee for EuroEast.

I went to EuroEast a couple of years ago (last year had a family reunion that weekend). There was almost no Z scale there either. I hope to change that at some point.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to make EuroEast, though I would love to be
there! I am a long time ETE member, but have not been able to make of the
annual meets (as of yet).

If you could, please pass on to the ETE that we are having a one day Z scale
meet in Washington D.C. on July 5th. This day may be of great interest to ETE
members. We will be having the event at home of Rob Allbrittons Z scale
layout. The layout is a too scale replica of the Gotthard line. And when I mean too
scale, it is true! The layout is Z scale and is housed in 4,000 square feet.
It is by far the most impressive layout I have seen. The detail and scenery is
incredible!

Also, it should be noted that the event is being cosponsored by Marklin Inc.
Riley O'Conner is actually hosting one of our clinics. If any of the ETE
members are interested in attending, we still have slots open. More on the event
can be found at this link:
