I was there on saturday just after opening bell. I spent just over 2 hours circulating from table to table. there were less vendors this year, and what they had to sell was not anything I was looking for. The T shirt guy didn't have any new designs-- they were the same as last year-- As Traindaddy said, most was Large scale, HO or N. there were several that were mostly O, but the prices were a tad high-- I usually buy some rolling stock, maybe an engine, but nobody had what i wanted. If this economy gets worse, I won't be coming back next year.
A Day Without Trains is a Day Wasted
Well, I went to the show today..............Well attended........ For me, however, it seemed to be more "HO", "Garden" and "N" than "O". Of the "O", a lot of the items seemed, to me, to be over-priced. (Even after bargaining) Don't know what I expected but I saw almost no buidings and scenic accessories.
On the plus side.........A lot of friendly people of all ages. Being a "newbie" to Florida, I was glad to see that there "are" train people down here.
Overall, a pleasant outing. Thanks for all your advice.
