An overall view of the setup by the Sn2 Crew.  All curved modules are by Lee Rainey.

What better place to show off Sn2 Free-mo, than in the heart of 2-Foot country during the 2007 National Narrow Gauge Convention in Portland, ME, an event that included over 1500 NG fans, most of who were 2-foot crazy.

Dubbed the "Sn2 Crew", the members of this Sn2 set-up did a wonderful job putting forth a great presentation.  They pulled together from Maine, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, and Colorado.

  • Participation:

    • Lee Rainey

      • Damariscotta Station (4'x18"): Lee Rainey's Damariscotta station.

      • Eight 45 degree Curved modules:  These modules total 180 degrees, enabling the Sn2 Crew to create a loop.

    • Frank Knight: Frank's Alna module represent the WW&F today!  It was a big hit, as most conventioneers could recognize the location.  The 3-way stub also captured their attention.

    • Gary White:  Gary's brought three mini-mo's.

    • David Harmon:  Brought a 30" long creamery module, all the way from Colorado, as carry-on luggage.

    • David Keith: David brought several pieces of rolling stock to operate on the layout.

    • Matt Sharpe:  Provided rolling stock for display at Alna..

The members of the Sn2 Crew should be applauded for what they accomplished in such a short period of time.  Considering what the modules looked like in April and what they look liked during the show.  Also consider that Dave Harmon and Frank Knight had never met any other member of the crew prior to the convention...
