My First NMRA Contest

Last month, I took a couple of flat cars to the local NMRA meeting and entered them in the open loads contest. This is the first time I ever entered a model in a contest and amazingly, one of them earned 2nd place. Not bad considering they had 34 entries which was apparently a record showing. Here is the page from the Call Board newsletter announcing the winners.
