The #1 Northern Division
Monthly model display
Up until January 2014, the No. 1 Northern Division ran a model display at the Winnipeg Model Railroad Club's monthly meetings.
It was not a contest, but a display. Submissions for the display were open only to members of the Winnipeg Model Railroad Club. A prize of a gift certificate from a hobby shop was chosen at random, and the winner was announced at the club's business meeting.
Below is a slide show featuring some of the entries for the model display.
WMRC member Virginia Braun, who also runs the model railroad department over at Toad Hall Toys, built this hen house, complete with chickens!
WMRC member Gino Kost submitted this Canstock car. This type of car was designed specifically to haul aluminum or steel coils for the manufacturing of canned food products. Note the sliding door placed off-centre.
Ron Einarson is a fan of the L&N railroad. He built this accurate model of one of their coal unloading trestles.
