First Show of the Season For the Pittsburgh Independent Hi-Railers (pix added)

Andy,

Thanks for sharing your photos with us. If you have time tomorrow, please get pictures of the vendors and the public. I think everyone would enjoy seeing them. I know I would. Have a wonderful time tomorrow. Thank you, Jimmy

HI Andy,

 

Nice layout and photos. Another good job by your group.

 

For the benefit of those who may be planning to attend the show, when I was in Pittsburgh the week before York, part of Route 88 was closed.   Is that still the case?

 

Regards, 

 

Bill

 

Rt. 88 at the intersection with 51 is one way towards Castle Shannon.  There is a detour route posted to get back to 51 from Castle Shannon.

looks like a great set up Andy. I love that J.

The empty-hoppers train and those coal-drags look great and well suited to the area. VERY NICE.

Here are the pix from Sunday.  Forgot to take my camera with me to the dealer halls, but I did get a few shots of some of the other displays in our hall.  Overall, there was a steady crowd all day.

 

 

 

Kennywood is less than a month away!

 

We like running local stuff.

 

It is nice that some can still go swimming...

 

Keith6700's customized work caboose.  The crew must have had french fries for lunch...

 

The new Legacy switchers certainly smoke up a storm!

 

Just a few more days and we will be setting up for the Greenberg show in Monroeville.

Wish I was there, looked like a lot of fun!

Andy,

    Great set up as usual, hope to see you guys at the Monroeville show.  The Grouse hunting here in Potter/Tioga has been exceptional this 1st part of the season however, and it will be very hard to leave the Log Cabin right now.   Thanksgiving & Christmas are just around the bend buddy.  Time for Train Layouts.  Keepem on the rails.

All the Best

Thanks for the pics, nice set up.

The show was a blast. Great pictures!

Did you go, Keith?

Hi Mike.. Keith was there all day ran trains and helped with take down. We all had a good time and most of us found items to take home. Maybe you can make it to Greenberg this weekend.

good grief,,,i was selling there ,,,and had no idea that was up there,,,,,,nice,,,sorry I didn't get to see it,,,but it was a nice ,very well, planned show,,,i had a good day selling see ya all at the tca dec 13th show,,,,

See you guys at monroeville. I'll be there Sunday.  I hope you guys run that big Union Pacific diesel. !  

Yah, it was fun. Did you make it to the Monroeville show?

 

I was there for the last hour and a half or so. I didn't make it up to the layout, mostly because I didn't have anything to run or Legacy to run them with. Hopefully that will change soon! However, I did leave with a new engine, so that's always good.  I look forward to meeting you for real at the KW display!

Great photos and report on what looks like a cool show. You guys sure have a nice setup!
