Have you tried the Events section in the Classic Toy Train magazine as not all events are listed on the online posting. Example; I live in south Florida & the Lake Worth train show was not listed on the website but was in the CTT magazine.

I don't believe that events that are primarily toy train in nature are listed in the trains.com show list, only in our magazine. Or, put another way, events that are primarily scale or prototype in orientation are listed in trains.com. There are a few, but not all.

LCCA has a Chattanooga Area Train Show coming up on Saturday, July 1, 2006.  It's at the Catoosa Colonnade in Ringgold, Georgia near Interstate 75 exit 350 (5 miles south of the GA/TN state line).  For more information you can call Bill Stitt at (423) 894-1284, George Baltz at (423) 842-9064 or Ron Herman at (423) 344-5799.  Good luck!

Wow!  It sure is.  I was in too big a rush, just trying to be helpful.  Oh, well, they'll probably have one next year.
