Ok my wrong!
Gentlemen,
Got into the Show late on Sunday, had a good time, talked to Harry Neil and purchased a Couple Tin Plate Cabooses from one of the vendors near his booth. Waived at Doc (Thom) at the Pitts Hi-Railers Club Layout, and saw lots of kids having a great time with the Pitt Hi Railers Layout. The remote control flying air craft was selling like hot cakes, while I was at the show, Lionel better purchase that business pretty quick.
Saw a lot of kids upset because Mom and Dad did not have enough money to purchase the train sets they really wanted. Reminded me of the late 40's early 50's, when I was a boy, just after the WWII. One of the great attractions for the kids was the hands on Lionel remote control small layouts, that they were able to play with and run, the little kids were having a ball with them.
Got to say I witnessed a Grandfather telling his son and his daughter in-law that the $15.00 a head cover charge for each adult, was a shocker to him. He payed $60.00 just to get the 4 of them into the train show. The 2 kids entered for free.
All in all it was a very nice show, definitely with attending.
