Green Bay Title Town Show

If the O gauge hobby is falling by the wayside it isn't happening here in Northeast Wisconsin it seems. Getting into to parking lot and into the Title Town trainshow took at least 15 minutes through a crowd like I never seen and I got there late. I don't know. Maybe it had to do with tax returns or the cute blondes in the Kalmbach and Walthers booths. It was a good mix of O gauge, HO, and N. I saw a lot of people toting Atlas O, Lionel, and MTH boxes around. Mostly higher priced scale diesels and freight cars were moving while traditional size stuff attracted little interest. Postwar Lionel and Flyer wasn't getting the attention it used to get but most of it was common stuff or junk. It was standing room only in one Atlas O dealer's booth. She was shocked and wished she had rented more space and brought more stuff to sell.

   There's no such thing as postwar Lionel junk, you just go to be creative. :)

I'll second that! Postwar rules even if it's a bit battered.

 Well yes of course postwar rules but junk is junk until you get creative with it.
