Didn't Charlie Ro pass away? Yes. I believe his son owns the business now.

We have landed in Philadelphia without issue (except for having to wake up at 3am to catch the flight).
As rush hour is beginning we decided to stop for dinner after a long flight on the way to York and avoid the traffic. While sitting in some traffic on I-95 leaving the airport we saw a CSX freight train with single level containers and auto carriers. I can feel the buzz already!!!

Brian, Glad you made it safely to PA. Have a good time at York - the sighting of the CSX freight was a good start. Alfred

Had a similar experience on Thursday as I was driving east on rte. 30 towards York, when A G A I N we were stopped by the local freight picking up hopper cars from the cement plant. Talk about an "entrance/welcome" to the train show!!

Overall, I'd say the York meet was another success, yet with several "speed bumps".....for example there weren't any shuttles on Thursday. C'mon, many TCA members need those shuttles. Didn't see a shuttle until Friday. Saw many familiar faces. Most halls were pretty sparsely attended. Of course, the weather was unbeatable...

redjimmy, Glad you had a good time and saw the hoppers. It sounds like for some, that they would need a hopper to take home their purchases. Alfred
