Will any members of this forum be visiting Eurospoor in Utrecht later this month?

If I had a clue about what you're talking about, I'd be delighted to say hi. Best I can say is I'll be at the TCA Eastern meet at York Pa next week.

OK I Googled it http://www.eurospoor.nl/du/bezoek/data.html  The TCA meet @ York is 10/18-20.  If you can, take and post some pictures. We'd love see it.

Nicole, you might be. I think I'm the only one in Maui. Don

Sadly I won't be there Gilly, otherwise I'd pop over and say 'Hi'.

Don, if I ever win the lottery, I'll move to Maui and help to double the 3-rail nuts there.

 

For any in Europe who don't know about the Eurospoor show, here's a link to information about it.  http://www.eurospoor.nl/index-b.html

Hey Nicole, one of your ships is in town today. Holland American. Thanks for sending it over, tourism pays most of our taxes so I can buy more trains. Don

Hey Nicole.....I checked out that site for Eurospoor....awesome! Looks like a combination of TCA's York Week, Rail Fest, and Strasburg Pa in July!  I liked the commentary that mentioned the fact  that this is "a wonderful outing, not just for 'Train Freaks'...... "  

 

Have fun....post some pix?     Regards, Tom in PGH

@Nicole...pretty sure you're #1 nut 3 railers 0 in Holland..there is a couple who post video on YT..dunno how nuts they're.. This guy seem to have a blast running his 3rails trains outside (ok he is multigauge)

 

 

A nice overview of last year Eurospoor...a fair amount of US train show

 

 

 

 

Looks like a great show and lot of fun.

Thanks all. I'm sorry that none of you will be there, as I'd have loved to meet some of you in person. It's a pretty good show and draws exhibitors and visitors from all over Europe. I may take Thomas and his remote along, just in case I find a 3-rail O track.

If anyone who reads this does happen to be there on Sunday 21st October, look out for a mad old bat wearing an orange Lionel shirt. 

Nicole, I thought you were on your ship. It pulled out last night for a thirty day trip to Tahiti and back. Don

Haven't been to the Netherlasds since camping at Shiphol in 1976...is that little

outdoor village in very larges scale with an airport and all still a tourist attraction?

Hope that is a good show...

Hi, yes it's still there, and even bigger now.  Here's a link to a video of it.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...&feature=related

Unfortunate I won't be in Utrecht this weekend but two weeks ago I was there a couple of times on my way between Schipol and Oss.  It's one of my favorite cities to visit when I'm in the Netherlands.
