On behalf of METCA i would like to thank everybody to stopped by the METCA table to show support to the division, the convention and TCA.  We had hundreds of people stop by to say hello, talk trains, talk 2015 TCA convention or join the organization.  it was great to meet new people and introduce them to TCA as well as seeing many friends from the hobby. The table was mainly there to promote the 2015 convention but became a gathering place for many hobbyists and newcomers to partake in the METCA experience.  Since we started doing the METCA table in 2008 this particular table has been our best yet.  160 square feet of METCA materials, 2015 convention info, TCA publications and trains.  We had a great location at the entrance so everybody had to walk by us, besides you could not miss our new orange and blue table covers. We stood out and received many compliments and thanks for us being there.  enough talk.  here are some pictures documenting the event.  hope to see everybody in June at the convention.
