I’m sure you’ve all heard that Atlas O and MTH will be attending with their own booths. Looking forward to that! Yawn... Yawn? I think not — especially in light of today’s Shared Tooling Asset Deal between the two companies. |

My sources also tell me Nicholas Smith Trains will be attending the Meet. Not as large of a presence, but they’ll be back!

I know they haven’t attended Allentown ATMA for quite some time now. For a few years, they took over the tables from Charles Ro Supply, when they bowed out. I guess business is thriving at the retail stores for both dealers. And the math to attend train shows doesn’t work anymore. Perhaps it never really did, and the former senior players at both shops are no longer making the decision to attend (i.e., Charles Ro senior passed away a couple of years ago, and Chris Ganz’ health hasn’t been good in recent years; so other family members are running the store now — making different decisions.)
On a related note though… Nicholas Smith Trains just recently upgraded their website, and it’s quite the upgrade. VERY easy to use… and quite impressive compared to the older format.
