Edison Greenburg show!, Who went????
Posted by 92hatchattack on Sunday, March 6, 2005 1:37 PM
I was there on saturday. It was very cool and alot bigger than some of the train shows i have gone to before.

I was lucky enough to meet Chris(Lehigh Valley Railroad) at the show by his TAMR layout. Very cool guy that showed me a little about TMCC and even let me play around with the Cab-1. It was great. I was the first time ive ever seen comand control in person and i was pretty impressed, expecialy how smoothly the engine accelerated and decelerated. I think it was also very cool that the TAMR didnt have a big elaborate layout, and they just came and setup up a big floor layout and just straight up were running trains! I think alot of people can relate to this and it just felt like these guys were out there keeping it real!

Besides that i was a little dissapointed that i didnt buy anything. But hey, i guess that saves the bank! I didnt go home totaly empty handed though! I got a cool litte batery operated plastic train set for my son Adam!!! He was very entertained by the trains at Xmas so we got him something he can have out all year!

So anyway thanks once again to Chris, would have liked to stay and chat longer, but i had alot of*** to get done that day!

So who else got to the show, and more importantly, what trains did ya come home with?!?!?! [:D]

Hey Joe,

I think Colin (Snell50) was uppose to go, But I did not see him. I would have loved to stay and talk longer, maybe at the next show. Thanks fot all the kind words about the TAMR! Other then what I came with, Thats what I went home with. My little brother ( 6 ) got a another Beep for his layout.

Man a long weekend! We had 10 trains running all the time, G and HO scale and many intedested people in the TAMR

Hey Guys!
CHRIS!!! I AM SO SORRY! I stopped by at the TAMR on SAT. I was going to ask for you, but I got distracted by the huge N gauge train on that layout.


If you saw me, I was wearing a green jets football jersey that was number 94.
I am so sorry I forgot.

.
By the wat, I got that Model Railroad Simulator for 40.00$$ It is awesome!
When is the next show? I'll be there!
