I went. Great disappointment. Spent $7 to get in. Another $4.95 on a new HO truck. Which I found on ebay tonight along with 3 others for $3.99 plus shipping or $2.29 per vehicle.

There was a lot of used and tired merchandise. Evident vendors had been trucking the stuff from show to show for years by the condition of the boxes.

No manufacturers there showing their new merchandise. Not even local internet vendors there. That says alot.

I had $250 in my pocket. Spent $4.95. Was looking for a new DCC switcher. Nothing to look at.

I won't go back.

The highlight of the show was the local train clubs that had terrific displays. Even the Live Steam group in Atlanta. Hats off to you guys for displaying!!!!
