Rocky Mountain Hi-Railers (News Clip)
at the 6th Annual Treasure Valley NMRA Train Show

They have won Peoples choice award every time they have entered. 1996, 1997, 1999. 
Steve Blackburn scanned these photos and was kind enough to send them to me for use on S-Trains.  The train operators are  Bill Sandrus (Engineers cap), John Eichmann (yellow A/F T-shirt) and Al Babbitt. Spectators include Aaron Lewer & Lindsay Emerson.  The layout is a double decked three leaf clover except the leaves are square. It is 331 sq. ft of table area and needs a minimum of 25x30 ft. to set up.  Its trademark is a double crossing that that provides lots of excitement.  Thus its name "Lookout Junction"  You gotta look out for crossing trains. Yes they do have an oops once in a while...But it's fun and that's why the public loves it. 
Club coordinator is John Eichmann
