The Houston Museum of Natural Science contracted TW TrainWorx to design/fabricate/install the 1300 sq.ft TRAINS OVER TEXAS display which has been a HUGE SUCCESS!! There is still time to see it as the Traingineers don't head down to Houston until February 20, 2017 for the dismantle.

The display consists of three tables and before the Super Bowl last weekend there were 3 Christmas trees which we took down and replaced with a replica model of the NRG Stadium and vignettes of New England and Atlanta. Here are shots of the stadium which actually rotated and check out Enchanted Rock behind the Austin State Capital... all the handy work of the talented TW Traingineers : )

Enjoy this video of the Trains Over Texas Display made by our own "ABC Crew"... Alan, Ben, & Connor

Happy Tracks!

I recognized Enchanted Rock in the still pic immediately but did not know Sodor Island is in Texas. Is it near Galveston Island?

What, me worry?
