They used to be in the brown hall, they had a booth that was about half of the whole hall
Purple Hall.
Nope. Looks like she didn't make it this year.
couldn't find Beth anywhere
No, Public Delivery Track was not there. And the Brown Hall didn't look right without her.
I wouldn't be surprised to see that hall eliminated as the vendors could be placed into Purple or Orange without too much trouble. At least that's how it looks to me.

Totally agree George. Commented the same sentiments to my daughter today. The Purple Hall is 1/4 empty and the Brown Hall had I think 4 vendors in it.
All the other halls were well populated though, which is a good sign!
I noted in the brief time I was there (manning my table for most of the meet) that the 1st row along the right side wall of Orange as you walk in from the food area was nearly empty.
I don't know if those were vendors that maybe just had last minute reasons they couldn't make it, or if there really were unsold tables. (saw maybe one other booth too that looked empty, but I didn't by any means get to walk the whole hall).

While the parking lot sure didn't look like there were many absentees, I saw
that empty space, a number of empty tables, (and this is October), and even
the conductor with Parkinson's who always holds the lantern in the Orange Hall
did not make it. May have passed on?
I think tomorrow (Friday) will be the true barometer of the meet.

Today, Friday, the Brown Hall was half empty and she was not there.
I had heard a week ago that PDT would not be at York and JDS trains was obviously not there resulting in a lot of empty tables.
Brown Hall was half barricaded off. One exhibitor said he's retiring and expects Brown Hall will not be used. If that's true, probable some other dealer hall should be closed to keep dealer close.
Beth Marshall of PDT could not make it to the Show. Expect to see PDT back at the April 2016 Show. JD's Trains was not in the Orange Hall. Understand Jeff recently took a new job. Was unable to contact him recently. Not certain whether he will be back. Arttista was not in the Orange Hall because Dennis' wife suffered an injury just before the Show. He will be back in April.
