Ok now after a night of sleep and getting on my iPad instead of my phone...
The event was very crowded and folks were buying. There was Lionel trains and NASCAR folks all about. If you were looking for Scale engines, our usual quest, there was very little. As Brian pointed out there were 2 challengers and a one other engine, the C&O 2-10-4. The challenger I believe we're going for $1400.
Lots of sets, track, Christmas decorations, and non scale cars. LionChief engines were definitely in abundance.
i picked up a couple of non scale Polar cars including the hopper with silver coal load and the reindeer bobbing head car.
Were heading back back this morning before going north and I'll report back again.
All in all even without scale engines the trip with friends is always worth it.

That’s a lot bigger and a lot busier than I had imagined. Looks like fun.

Here are the items I picked up...  A nice pewter plate/bowl.  A couple non scale PE cars.  And a Lenny stuffy for my upcoming grandson. Not pictured was smoke fluid and Christmas cards. We had a great trip and a lot of fun even though there were not a lot of scale stuff. |

Thanks for the photos Marty. One of these days I'll get there. Though I would have to sacrifice York that year and I would probably end up going by myself. It would be worth it.
