Hey guys,
Just thinking, I was planning to make the trip to Allentown this fall for their huge model train show. Of course Beer and Train talk woulld figure in!
I really enjoyed myself last spring with Todd and I expect to do a lot more buying this fall.
I was thinking that maybe we could meet up several of us for the show and maybe hit Steamtown at the same time. I'm about 500+ miles from there or about 9+ hours. Who else is in range???

Exact times will be required if I;m to do any planing. The sad part is that I'm thoroughly tapped out on both money and "please, honey?" trip-karma for the forseeable future; I did both the Great Midwest and Timonium shows in a span of 3 weeks. Good news is I'm satisfied for now... bad news is I could always go to a show and find a million ways to spend money!
I drove through Allentown once, it's about 500 miles or so for me as well.

We have kinda of an attitude in Canada that any drive within a days travel is in the neighbourhood.
As to accurate Todd will know. (First Frost, the second weekend in November.) This show is big from a tables with things to sell standpoint. I think they said 625 tables last year. I know Todd and I were there almost the whoile day and he went back the next day (pursuit of elusive Purina car variation!) for more.

Thats probably about as late as you can get away with the due date closing in...
Lets see what other attention we can attract!?
