Sounds good to me.[:D] I’ll definately check and see if I can make it.[:D] I may even get to meet some of you guys.[:)]
just got to the hotel after setting up my booth, I’m right next to the Boeing N scale club layout if you go, stop by to say hi!
Ill be there
What booth were you in there, river?
I was right next to the N scale layout, my booth "Train Haus"had the table with several sound locos set up and running on sort of a switching maze powered by Bachmann EZ Command.
Well, we nodded at each other! I did not see this thread until today. Took my boys to the show as part of a suprise road trip that took in the Amish area around Arcola and then on to Decatur for the show. I distinctly remember your table with the EZ-Track and the sound locos. Sorry I did not say hello.
Well, I made it to the train show on Saturday, and was there most of the afternoon. I ended up getting an AHM/Rivarossi 0-8-0 (ball-bearing motor in cab) in the original box, a Stewart S-12, which was in an Athearn box, but still un-assembled in new condition, and a mint-in-box Athearn RDC.[:D]
Was that the table with the Athearn Big Boy and a couple GPs running through switches? If that was you, than I’m sorry I didn’t say “hi”. I’m not too good at making conversation, or even talking to people I’ve never met in person.
You might not remember since there were a lot of people around, but I was a younger guy wearing a gray T-shirt that said “Arizona” on it, and had some sort of Aztek art on it. I’m pretty sure I got down on my knees at the table to take a closer look at that Big Boy, just since it looked so neat.[:D]
I walked by there, wearing a orange shirt w/ a railroad hat on.
that was Saturday around noon
yep, that was me with the big boy running, sorry you didn’t say hi, i really enjoy meeting the people from the forum, especially this time of the year when I spend four days a week working and traveling to shows. next for me are indianapolis and birmingham. maybe see you down the road. b0b
