Hi everyone,
I especially refer to french railfans:
has anyone ever visited the railexpo in Dreux? do you suggest it in general and for live steam? I'm thinking of a trip to see it...
Thank you
Alberto

Hi Alberto:
I was a stalwart of this exhibition since it was in Pontoise then in Chartres where we won first prize, we ran on one of the Rambolitrain museum track then on the Twerenbold track for years. last year we ran with the new G1MRA France track in Dreux, with the firts G1MRA France gang. It was quite succesful. This year we will not be going, because it will be the Longjumeau group that will be there. We will though, be present at the Chambery hobby show in two weeks on the first and second of November, and much closer to Italy. Here is the link:
I look forward to seeing you there if you can make it. There should be a large French group and many Swiss members also. Just ask for me there i will be there most of the time although I will certainly visit the magnificent covered locomotive shed, the last reamining of its type of the old PLM... The PLM GG1 folks.
Ciao Alberto!
