The Modules on TV.  In December of 1984, three pairs of modules were set up and running for CHSJ-TV's Mid Day program.    Here Bob Boudreau, the hostess, and Gerry Gilliland discuss the finer points of model railroading.   They are in front of Gerry's modules, while Bob's are on the opposite side.  To the right, behind the cameraman  are Doug Buckley's modules, set up to display the construction techniques.
The first of our winter shows.  The modules were set up in the South End  Community Center on a snowy winter day in February of 1986.   There was only room for two pairs of modules, Mike May's on the left, and Ron Grant's on the right.   That's Mike with his back to the camera in the foreground (Mike now lives in Calgary).   We had some tables set up, and some dealers were on hand.  On the right was our one and only attempt at a "Silent Auction".
Modules in the Mall.  An early set up in Saint John's McAllister Place Mall, April 1985.   In use is the club's first attempt at crowd control, mini picket fences.  Each member had two 4 foot sections for in front of their modules, and there were extra ones for the corners.  These were used for quite a few years.  Still no skirting on the modules at this time.  There are four pairs of modules set up here.
