How big would something like this be. 20 vendors tables, 200? Quite a drive for me for a small turnout...

Thanks

My guess for the fall one was about 50 vendors, though I may exagerate a bit. Everything in slot cars was there... I could have spent double the $200 I spent easily...

ajd350 was off in the table count, we had 98 tables and 50 vendors is about right
Looking for the spring show to be even better. Get your table reservations in early

I hope some of the venders will be selling the Tomy dual terminal track and the 18" turns. My want list is growing the closer the show date gets.

Last minute decision, I'll be there. We will be staying at the Amerihost hoping for some Saturday night buying/selling/trading.

I hope all you folks have a great time. Unfortunately I won't be there. I've been bouncing between Hobbies for some time now. HO Railroading has been taking up most of my free time lately. Plus I'm hosting a race next weekend at my home and need to get things ready.

I plan on being there for the November Show. Plus there will be the AutoFest later this year. Randy.
