NE Ohio Train Shows this weekend 2-27-05
Posted by spankybird on Tuesday, February 22, 2005 11:49 AM
OK Boys and Girls, this weekend NE Ohio has two shows on the same day at the same time.[:(]

1 Eastlake North HS (1 mile from my house)[:p]

2. Medina Train Show, Media Fairgrounds. (50 miles from my house)[:)]

Both are great shows by them self, but many of the dealers would be at both if they were on different days. Hard to tell which dealer will be at which show [B)]

Which Buckeye are going to which show

I am going to start at Eastlake North HS and if I have any money left I may drive down to Medina.[;)]

Medina does a great job of seting there show dates a year ahead of time. Eastlake should have done a better job of checking other area shows before confirming their dates. [B)]

The Eastlake show is just a little smaller than the Medina show, but with spliting the dealers, both shows will suffer.[:(]
