The 2010 NMRA 75th Anniversary

The Milwaukee 2010 75th Anniversary
National Model Railroad Association
Ongoing Manufacturer's Awards!

This year we had TWO winners, TWO awards (and TWO prizes...:)

Fanatsonics™ Engineering "Most Deserving of Sound" Award

Larry Diehl

Jacob's Fuel Co..

This unique model inspired us to create a dedicated soundtrack for Larry... there is so much going on it was also a challenge. The scene required a bunch of scratch built sounds, and it came out so well, we have decided to release a version of it (under the title of 'Jacob's Fuel Co.' of course:)!

And new this year!

Fanatsonics™ Engineering "Most Deserving Youth" Award

Amanda Wade

Town Park Gazebo

None of our existing scenes were appropriate, so Christie & I were tickled and delighted to make a custom soundtrack for Amanda's terrific model. Everything is there, the band, the people, and of course all the park's "inhabitants". The concert included a number of pieces of music spanning traditional to contemporary, and hymns to marches. We even added a fireworks display as the band played the Star Spangled banner finale.

Amanda says:

Dear Jim and Christie Wells,
Thank you so much for giving me the youth sound award it was an honor to get it. The cd was really great! Some of my favorite parts were the band tuning, the geese honking, and the fireworks booming. I told my dad that we have to make fireworks somehow. I might even be able to bring my gazebo and sound system to school to show the other kids. I am so excited to put the speakers in my dad's layout. Thank you so much for all of your time and effort.

Sincerely,
Amanda Wade
