Dear Joe, 

     You are the host of the party!!! Look above Karl Geffschen, your there. Regards, John

John,

I did not see the top list!  I have the same problem finding the Ketchup bottle in the refrigerator!

I attended yesterday (I'm a 3-railer) and had a great time.  You always find unique detail parts, a wider variety of structure kits, and a few surprises at these 2-rail shows.  It was well run.  Nice job!

I need some help from any attendees at the show.

I believe that someone or myself may have inadverdently picked up and then bagged a decoder/sound card when bagging some items that were purchased.

It was a used Soundtrax decoder/sound card for 1st generation EMD with a speaker, in a plastic zip lock bag.

If anyone has the item by mistake, please contact me at lmrahilly at yahoo dot com.

Otherwise, it was a great show and a good time.  Met some nice folks and saw many old acquaintances.  As always, thank you John and Rich for your efforts to promote 2 Rail.

Good show and pretty well attended; might have to get an addition built onto the firehouse soon for more dealer tables,

Another great show.  More tables and a larger crowd each time.  Must be closing in on 90 tables.  Bunches of track, turnouts, all kinds of engines and seriously underpriced cars from a thinning collection.  I noticed some tables going through restocking as the morning wore on.

Another guy had some real unusual benchwork.

I really liked John Sethian's two workshops, one on  sound and color in scale plus a shorter one on water windows.

Rich and John somehow hit on a great format in a great location convient to many.  Thanks guys.

What a great passing of the batton after Dave Richter retired  Eastern 0 Scalers. 

0 Scale is very much alive and well in the great Northeast.

Suggestion, how about model RRer's hosting open houses before or after,  local or not so local?? tt

John and Rich,

I am sorry I did not make it out to your show on Sat.  I am in the process of recovering from knee replacement and I over did it a few days prior to the show.  I needed to stay off my feet in an attempt to be sort of ready for York.  I'll do my best the next time.  Please contiue to mention the show on this forum.

I didn't attend the show, but had the opportunity to talk to Bob Jones on Sunday at the Hudson, Mass show, and he spoke very well of it. Sounds like you guys could use additional space with the growing popularity of this event...much success going forward!

This was a great show, and continues to get better each time.   Plus, as an added bonus the ex N&W 4-8-0 was running at Strasburg.

Thanks Rich and John for holding it.

And thanks Tom for the clinics on "the challenges of using dust as a weathering technique," and "the proper way to insert plastic hoppers into your fellow modeler's long string of brass ones."  

Excellent show. I enjoyed it very much. Quite a rowdy group. We need to do the wave next time.

John and Rich,

   Another good show. Many thanks to you both for your efforts to keep O Scale alive in the Northeast. Good turnout and LOTS of bargins. Didn't find anything I was looking for, but that's a good reason to come to the next one. I look around at the meet and it is hard not to be dismayed at the aging O Scalers and the small number of younger people.

        Someone left a notepad on my tables during the show. It is about 5x7, a jr. Legal Pad. There is 2 pages of notes. Top page is a shopping list for IM cars. Next page has Pollyscale paint info on it for Trolley projects. I want to see this get back to whomever owns it. Thanks.
