Police Investigate Theft From Model Train Show
I hate to report bad things, but this should be a wake-up call to everyone involved with model train shows.
La Crosse police in Wisconsin recently investigated thefts from five vendors at the March 2007 Model Railroad Show held at the La Crosse Center.
According to reports, around $700 worth of model railroading products were stolen from the vendors at the train show.
Police report missing models included three locomotive engines ranging in price from $164 to about $300, a stock train car worth $100, a $50 scale model hardware store and two bags of kits valued at $20.
Although 99 percent of visitors to model train shows are genuine, there is always the potential for some thief to spoil the fun for everyone. So, if you are displaying your trains at model train shows, take care.
