Well Here I am at home having spent the whole day here and just realized that I missed the Allentown train show. I'll have to pay for my table and not have gone. I am not a happy camper right now. Feeling foolish.

Last time I was the event card for 2015 at the Mall, I seen the show date Dec 12, 2015 and didn't read anything else. Well I am surprised no one caught it . Maybe people here are use to me making mistakes. Well the date is in the list for Toy Shows and not Train shows.
Train Show Allentown PA
Merchants Square Mall
January 16 2016
Well I will be there. I wont miss it.
