My friend told me he was out of there in 30 minutes after being very close to the front of the line at opening. He bought a book just to keep it from being a waste of time.
Doesn't sound good, we got one coming to Wilmington Delaware in 2 weeks, that I plan on attending...
There's on at Columbia Green College today in Hudson n.y. going to check it out. Hope it's worth it!
Well just got back and i gotta say, it was crowded. Seemed to be a nice show with a nice turnout, lotta great prices,H.O. was king here and toy cars. Lots of old stuff. All in all a good show.
I just go back too. The show had more HO and toys than anything else. My friends son bought an Lionel 0-8-0 for about 95 bucks. But every year the show gets smaller and It really isn't worth the 7 bucks to get in, compared to Allentown or York.
thats great, i was looking for mostly postwar, thats why i was dissappointed.
I agree Midletown was a bummer.

I thought the one in Va. Beach last weekend was a great show. A L-O-T of HO and a PANTLOAD of S-scale, but a real decent amount of O-scale as well.
Still, the only thing I bought was a truck and some detail items to place around the layout. Most of what I saw I either already had or had no interest in it.
Attendance seemed to be high, does Greenberg post attendance numbers? We only have 3 shows at most here during the year, plus a couple up in Richmond, althought eh LCCA will be hosting in Norfolk this year.
