Columbus Ohio Garden Railway Tour, News, Updates & More with Guest Jed Hacker on "Large Scale Live"
Everyone, it’s time again for an all new Large Scale Live! On this live stream we’ll be taking a look at some of the many layouts that will be on the upcoming garden railway tour put on by the Columbus Garden Railway Society on September 8th from 1pm to 5pm (See Links below for the clubs website and YouTube Channel). The best part is there is no cost to go on this tour, it’s FREE! To guide us along this journey we have Columbus Garden Railway Society member Jed Hacker as our guest! Some may remember Jed from when he appeared on our show in 2022 or from when he (and other club members) did the live stream series “Work Bench Wednesday” several years ago. As far as the tour the club does in Columbus Ohio, all I can say is if you have the ability to make it you should go. With over a dozen layouts on the tour you will definitely have more layouts to see than you have time for. Hopefully after watching the show it will help guide you to the layout’s you find most interesting. As always, bring your questions as I’m sure there will be a lot about the various layouts and Jed is pretty knowledgeable about each one’s history.
We will of course have info on other upcoming g scale events, product announcements/updates and other general G scale related news! We'll also be doing another giveaway to give back to our fans but you’ll need to tune in to find out what it is though. As always we look forward to interacting with everyone during the live stream in the chat and we know you’ll enjoy the show!
