Are there any train shows in Western NY soon. I just saw the grandkids and they're bugging me to take them to one. Trouble is I don't know when one is like the Batavia show, County Fair one, Buffalo terminal??

The soonest show I know of (in the WNY area) would be the Central Terminal event. I don't have the date in front of me but it usually takes place on the 2nd weekend of September. That's a long time away (in "kid time"). Might want to take them for a visit to Niagara Hobby or Kval to give them a liitle fix until train season officially starts.
Enginear-Joe,
Check with Jerry Lepsch the President of a new TCA chapter that was organized last year, The Upstate NY Chapter. He lives in the Buffalo area but they do shows in other western areas. jlepsch@moog.com Tell him Paul sent you!

Thanks Paul, message sent.
and.....The kids do love Niagara Hobby!
Joe, I think Buffalo Terminal is kaput. The can't do shows inside due to safety reasons. There was talk of setting up tents outside but that was nixed by most of the vendors. Can't help with dates on the other shows.

Here's a few websites that list events nationally. I don't know if these will be helpful but you might check them
