Brass Expo at Timonium MD Train Show April 11-12

Norm Pullen is expected to be there also.

Can't wait...lookin' forward to it.

Bring your loan officer with you,

Just a quick reminder:  The show is this weekend!  See you there!

Jack Vansworth and Division Point will be there so be sure to nag him about O scale!

Another mis-timed show, not bookending York week.

Caught one of those shows in October when I was leaving the area (from Aberdeen Proving Ground) for a PCS move across the country in 1998. It was a really good show, I just wished I'd been able to go to more of them...

       
       


"Mis-timed" for you perhaps... I highly highly highly doubt the majority of the Brass Expo attendees could give two hoots about the York event. Despite York's amazing popularity to us and O scales; simply my dear Watson it's not thier interest whatsoever.

The attendees of the Brass Expo are an entirely different breed of collector, mostly HO and large 1 scale. I'm hopeful even a hint of the O scale (2 rail and P48) community will have a small presence at the event. I'm doubtful let alone die cast and plastic toy trains.

apparently the Brass Expo hopes to draw the O Scale crowd back to Timonium, after the segment had dwindled way down in recent years. Why else would Norm come all the way from Casco ?

 

He's jonesing for some MD crab cakes,

 

I have not been to Timonium for well over a year now - I used to go to help sell off some estates for the NMRA, and then take a quick look around.  Now & again, I could find something that I really did not need at a price that I did not need to meet, but more often I only went to pick up scenery supplies.  Generally another waste of day of my life.

 

Going this Sat. is difficult as I need to be in PA and then it's a good distance out of my way to swing by Timonium just to pay to do sight-seeing.
