I didn't get out of the booth for 4 days, but being in Vince's Booth, there was no reason to leave! Picked up a vintage K-line Red Cross set, and a nice Lionel caboose. Was great to see all the regulars coming thru!
"So what did you get" I got a yellow 57 lamp post, 2755 semi-scale tank car, 2757X caboose for switcher set, both in near new condition, a glass showcase that I had made to order for my Mickey Mouse hand car, 3rd Rail T3 black NYC electric from Public Delivery Track, 3 pre-war catalogs & some parts from Jeff Kane. I probably went thru the halls 3 times. never used the bus. My daughter bought out the outlets in Lancaster. We had dinner twice with my sister in Cockeysville, MD. Just a great week.

Actually more than I went for.
Sorry I didn't bump into you to say hello this time, Art. I think it's been a few Yorks we have missed one another now.
As for me, here's the haul:
- Ben and Jerry's 2008 TCA Convention car that they had a few of for sale at the TCA Museum on Wednesday
- MTH York Boxcar
- DVDs form OGR (GLA #10) and Tom McComas (3 new ones for this meet)
- Megasteam 4 new scents and 2 more precision filler bottles
- Some bulbs and bulb holders for MTH subways (I was pleasantly surprised they had these on site!
) - 2 Philadelphia Pretzel Company fundraising cars from the Atlantic Division for next years convention in Cherry Hill
- Few Disney Operating cars (101 Dalmatians Gondola, Toy Story Gondola, and Goofy Jumping Hobo Car) and the Dumbo Pylon
- A door/doorway from scenic express to try to dress up a project a bit
- A Disney tractor/trailer
- crab cake and iced tea for lunch each day
- Not technically a York purchase, but I also stopped in at Nicholas Smith on the way home and got one other Disney car, The Steamboat Willie Flat with boat.

Don't forget your pre-order of our MP-15!
Hi Dave ! I was looking for you as well, sorry we missed again. Hope you and your Dad are well, please give him my best. I'm almost ready to start construction on the new layout: all Postwar, conventional control, all turnouts manually operated, buttons to the acessories mounted at the table edge, and all packed on a 4 x 12 flat tablework platform. (my little bit of rebellion against the rise of the computer ! ).
Take care, Art

I won't forget. I just didn't count it as a true "York Purchase" since I didn't have to fully pay for it or take it home with me yet!

Sounds great Art! I'm sure building the new layout will be lots of fun. I'll tell my Dad you said hi!
