In many discussions recently the idea of promoting S has been mentioned.   Do 
you know that NASG is promoting S at Train Shows?  This year I believe it is in 
four cities, NASG pays for  the booths to be manned by local NASG members at 
the Worlds Greatest Hobby on Tour Train Shows (www.wghshow.com). I believe the 
cities this year are Indianapolis, Chicago, Salt Lake, and Portland.  Possibly 
Cincinnati is after. The first two shows are history.  I will be manning the 
booth in Portland February 25 & 26th.

The main purpose is to promote S, both scale and hi-rail, to the model 
railroading community at large. Many of you saw the booth at the show in 
Sacramento during the NASG Convention.  That is exactly the kind of booth we 
are talking about.

In the booth I will have on display 15-20 of my locomotive collection, 
including both scale and hi-rail.    Also, I will have a couple loops of 
S-Helper track running trains.  The scale locos that I have that do run, 
unfortunately need a wider radius than I will have available.  So I will be 
running hi-rail only.  But those running will include AM, Lionel, and my one 
S-Helper diesel switcher.  So there will be some of the nicer ones there.

But since I haven't seen this mentioned, I thought I would let you know what 
NASG is doing for you.
