Kittanning, PA Train Show

Good question, DTrainmaster.  I had a flyer for last fall’s show that I picked up at Monroeville, but I threw it away when I didn’t attend.  I don’t have any contact information, except it seems to me the contact person is over here near Butler.  Unfortunately, I don’t know him and never saved his name.

So Mark, you think they did have a show in Nov 2021.

John, I filled out their questionnaire, we'll see what I get back.

Dave, I think they did, because I was thinking of going.  I haven’t gone over in several years

I feel that if they are having a show then they definitely need to advertise it better!

I suggest you call Jacks Tracks and ask the owner if the show is still in operation. The other person I would call is David Campbell. He was the Gentleman that ran it. David was from Butler. Sorry, I don't have a phone number for him.

Thank you, Jim!  David Campbell was the name I couldn’t recall.  I haven’t heard of Jacks Tracks before.

They definitely had it in November, as I went with some of my fellow Pgh Hi-Railers (and all my purchases went straight on to our layout at Kennywood later that day).  You might try messaging the VFD on their Facebook page.  We are doing a train show in New Eagle this coming Sunday, and I will check for flyers there.  Sunday is also the Ft. Pitt meet, so there may be flyers there as well.  I can't check there, obviously.

Thank you for the confirmation, Andy.  
In response to Franks comment, I have only see it advertised on flyers at other shows and a small advertisement in the Butler newspaper about a week before the event.

No response from the VFD.

Did anyone see a flyer for this show at any of the events this past weekend?

Dave

Dave, I was at the TCA show yesterday, and I did not see a flyer for it.  I didn’t see them until I was leaving, so maybe there were some and they were gone.  I should have asked the lady at the desk, but she was busy packing up. I thought I should have interrupted her after I was back on the road.  So, I’ll keep a watch in the Butler paper.

Left a message yesterday on David Campbell's phone, but no response yet.

Dave

I thought maybe they would have an advertisement in the Butler weekend paper, but they only have one in for their gun show this weekend.  Now I wonder if they wait until the very weekend of the show to advertise in the paper.  I'll keep watching for it.

No doubt about that!!!

The next Train Show in Kittanning will be held at the Pony Farm Trap and Gun Club. It will be on Sunday March 6th 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. For information, tables and directions, please call Matt Malec. His cell number is 724-859-6536. There will be food.

Thank you, Jim!!!

I found the flyer on the Pony Farm FaceBook page.  Thank you very much for the tip, Jim!!!

Thank you Mark, and Jim!

David Campbell will not be having a Train Show at the firehall until later this year.

Jim, thank you.  I started thinking maybe David wasn't going to have the show any more.  We will be on the lookout.

So there is no info on a Kittanning Train show on 27 March 2022, is this correct?    I swear I just saw it listed on this forum yesterday.  

Dave, here is the link in the Main Calendar section.  I know, if I hadn't saved the email of the new calendar notice, I would have lost it too.

Here is the advertisement in Saturday's Butler, Pa paper.  As I said, they advertise the week before the show.

So, for 2023, I once again ask about the date for the Kittanning Train Show.

November __ __ ?

Dave
