I noticed the Standard Gauge Trains. Were they well received? Also, did the facility provide the tables? What Kind of buildings are those in the fourth photograph? It looks like there were at least three of you there, so one of you could run the layout while the others ate lunch or went to the bathroom etc.? Did you take snacks and drinks with you? How long did you continuously run trains at a stretch? 8 hours?
These places have a number of activities for their guests, so we have a 2 hour slot to run trains, give an oral presentation and then do a Q&A. They loved the Std Gauge, especially the 100 year old 33 passenger set. We had plenty of time before and after for set up and tear down. They provided the tables. The buildings are various tea and cookie tins. Simple and they fit in a small bankers box. There were 3 of us, all forum members. They have a very nice eating area, a nice menu and great wait staff, just like a restaurant. There personnel also came into the room with the trains to see if we wanted any soda, water, coffee and ice tea etc. They treated us great.
