        And you just got to take your hat off to the guys who build these. (I know there are not boats but they are awesome)

        I do engineering for a living, but the patience to make these just amazes me.

            Looks like it was a great show Pete. Some really nice boats there.
            Love your driver punching the air in victory.
            And yes. Steam model engineering is always mind blowing to me. We have a couple of old salts that make all their steam engines & boilers for their scale boats. 'Magicians with metal' is what I call them.
            See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

              There were a lot more steam trains too, probably should have taken more pics. The local model engineers have a track at the park by the show and were really busy giving rides all weekend. They have spent a huge amount on their track etc. Their last upgrade which was finished last year was over $120k.
