This pretty much how it looked from the booth in the Orange Hall. Some pictures of our booth as well.The crowd was pretty thin, but we did manage to sell quite a few things. |

Wow!!! The only time Allentown ATMA looks like that is during set-up time and early morning Sunday and towards the end of the afternoon on Sunday. I can’t recall the crowd ever being that thin on Saturday morning into early afternoon.

What day was this? Early Saturday? Thursday? I was there most of the Friday session, and it was pretty packed (at least until 1600 when I finally pulled out).

I found the attendance to be better than past years. Especially in the larger dealer locations. Even Saturday was busier than normal. I ended up doing all my buying on Saturday.

Beings I was only there for Friday I found the halls to be very crowded. I thought also that it was busier than the past few years as Brian said also. It was alot of fun.

I don't understand that first picture. Eddie, the photo appears to be looking toward the rear wall of the Orange Hall where the Lionel booth would have been. I recognize the Atlas-O booth in the upper left corner. The entire area was left open this time. I guess the real question remains: WHEN in the day were these photos taken, because the place looks empty. |

dennym57 - there's a chance that all you have to do with your original image is place your cursor on the image and the information concerning date and time will display. The other possibility would be to right click on the picture and look at properties which should give the date and time created.

I will try it though. You have to understand, I'm not a computer savvy person. I'm lucky I can get on this forum.😐

If the reported attendance was 7200; that might mean that the ED sold that amount of tickets. As the pictures show light attendance the "no shows" may have been significant . In Allentown the rows are jam packed with folks and the tables stacked high with trains, but for now York is still the much larger meet.
