Sorry to say too far from me. I was in Denver for work a decade or so ago around this time, but didn't know anything about it. If you go, hope you have fun and find lots of good stuff!

I live on the east coast of Florida so that’s just a wee bit too far away for me. Train shows are fun so have a great time and let us know how you do. I have a local show next Saturday, Dec 2, that I’m looking forward to.

Well, after driving through a literal snowstorm, we managed to get to the train show. All the vendors were great, so I managed to buy and sell some things. I walked away with 13 Rail King Ore cars. The layout rooms were all well done and enjoyable to watch operate. Unfortunately this has made me realize I need ot offload a few more things for the space. I'll be posting shortly to the Buy/Sell page if anyone is interested.
Cheers!

My wife and I lived in Fairbanks, AK for the past few years and only moved to Colorado back in the spring. So this snow wasn't too bad

It's only November, lol.
I remember flying into the Denver airport years ago and seeing those permanent twelve-foot tall snow fences out along the tarmac. Denver in February...nope, not happening.
