Train Show this Weekend Feb 5 in san Francisco Bay Area

GREAT. Nice to finally see a show in the San Jose/San Francisco Bay Area. It's always a great show. Lots of great deals.

I know some of the dealers in the past that will be there this weekend and are looking to off load parts of their collections really cheap.

My stuff is ready to go. Last year the one dollar box was very popular. This year there is a two dollar box. Inflation? Nope, just better stuff.

See you all there!

I am looking forward to a great show.  Just don't spend all your money at Roy's $2 box, and keep working through the show to get to the good stuff on my table.

I'm going to do my best to make it.

I plan to come.  It has always been a fun show.  Lots of great stuff to buy!  NH Joe

Loading up the truck in a few hours. Then early Sunday morning, it's off to the show. Should be a lot of fun!

I'm ready as well. Several Legacy/TMCC engines at great prices: SF GP9, GN U33C, Canadian Pacific (2 of 'em) SP GP, etc. Operating Lionel Log Loader with TMCC, Lionel Ice Station, American Flyer/Lionel "Gabe the lamp lighter" NEW in the box and more.

Several sets of passenger cars, freight cars, track and switches just to list a few.

See you there.

Thanks for the great deal on the MPC boxcar Uncle Mike - my layout can always use more rolling stock!

So, RoyBoy gave us his report.  What's YOUR report, BK?

I did pretty good selling stuff.  I may have marked some stuff down twice before the doors opened.  Just wanted to clear some stuff out, and I succeeded.  I also tend to give something away when I see a family bring kids into the show.  Gives the kids a real thrill.

I did not have any big ticket items sell, but the deep discounts moved some buildings and accessories.  I still had trouble with the freight cars.  At $15 each, I expected more to go, but freight car sales was slow.

I got my stuff in before the heavy rain, so I dodged that one.

I was with Jacques when he bought your SP diesel dummy and with Mark when he bought your TMCC log loader.  It was a good show.  NH Joe

I had a great time.  The rain was like the tropics.  There was a down pour on one side of the street and the other side was bright and sunny.  I got soaked walking a few feet from the parking lot to the hall.  I really enjoyed the Golden Gate Club's modular 3 rail layout.  The best part of the event was that most of my train buddies were there.  NH Joe
