Events: 2022 Trainfest Photos
The Mudhens' Illinois Division set up their modules at the 2022 Trainfest show, held in Milwaukee on November 12 and 13. Several modules and two large loop modules, built by John Massura, Craig Crombar and George Pierson, formed a linear layout designed for continuous running and viewable from both sides. Mike McKenzie and Dean Smith also helped with the display and operation.
