I missed York but found a great Train Shop in North Carolina while visiting a friend. I found Nick's Trains, Inc and bought a few goodies........ www.nicks-trains.comOne find was a N&W coal car. It really fits in with my coal yard model I'm building. This scene I'm working on is from The Rahway Valley Railroad in Union NJ. (Where I grew up)

I also missed York however it's great to find a new train store. Looks like a good place to visit if you are in the area. The new hopper car looks just like the one in the prototype photo.

That’s the problem. I stopped by the Orange Hall on Thursday afternoon and nobody was there!!! I still managed to make it worthwhile though.

I did not buy anything from the orange hall... it was like going to a basketball game... after the game. Purple Hall, Blue Hall, Silver and Red were hard on my wallet.

I may have missed York, but I have Nicolas Smith Trains a 20 minutes drive away.

I was not at fall York 2021 either. You can call the reasons, too many trains, didn't want to take the time (wife still works F/T), needs are small, being a senior or not wishing to bear the travel expense. In all honestly the friendship and camaraderie aspect is really missed and I am considering returning after a 7 year absence for one overnight in fall 2022 . Yes I miss York but still go to both Allentown meets, that have nicely filled the needs for quite a while. My wife also likes it as she goes across the way to the large Farmers Market to buy a variety of foods and other stuff. Dinner is really exceptional the night that we get back-LOL.
