Forgot all about the show today Maybe next year!!
Hey Jim.I was there.Many good deals on Atlas TMCC Locomotives that I was not prepared for.When ever I go to that show I seem to gravitate towards the far (west) end of the building.Seen many people I knew.It was a good time.Hope your doing well and hope to see you soon again.Nick
I was at the show today for almost 2 hours. Seemed like mostly the same old stuff, offered by mostly the same people.
Not a lot of items carried out by buyers. A lot, and I mean a lot, of items left on tables still for sale at the end of it. I too saw a lot of AtlasO engines for sale, but asking prices were in the $300-350.00 range, not much of a bargain. I did enquire about one engine that caught my eye, when the seller said: "it has less than 10 hours run time on it". For the price he was asking, again no bargain. Did not make any major purchases, just some small ones. Met and spoke with some old friends. Left thinking I was glad I didn't get a table and spend all day there, "giving" things away just to make a sale.
I like to make this show, but with Marion yesterday and the very large and packed Springfield show today, no chance. I have found stuff at Medina. I thought the Marion show was sparse, yesterday, probably because of these two, but saw one interesting item there.
