All I have to say is go for it! I did and did not regret going. Had fun and got some cool deals!
John,
Had to say I was way to hyper to have any medical thingy come along!
Now speaking of eating or parking or even drinkn.....
Parking:$8.00
Admission to event:$7.00 x 2 = $14.00
2 drinks: $3.50 x 2 = $7.00
Really hate to see what the so called food cost???
But I did bring back up just incase.....American Express Card Did not need it thou. Just 3 dealers there with G Scale.

Hi Toad Frog&WhiteLightning
Model railroads good for the sense of well being, therapy and possibly even medicinal purposes they are even fun to play with.
But very bad for the Wallet.
Sounds like you had a great time.
Hope the coffee and donuts where of a better std than there seems to be at the big annual show down in the big smoke.
Looks like "G" force was well and truly on the move
I do wish some of the exhibitions would have proper "G" layout that either do a traditional model railway or one I saw in Perth that replicated a small garden with real living plants.
I recommend you go next year one of the things I like is checking up on the favorite layout to see if its still there and what changes have been made to the layout.
Regards John
I so wish that I could have been there to go with you. It looks like you had a fantastic time. Now you need to go to the next one, just think what you might find.

I can not believe I really went!!! Think you can say G Gauge/Scale can over come a illness like mine or others.
Moving fast!
Huge Military train.
I am not yet a cool type to take great pixs at these shows, but here are some tanks. Man these g gauge trains was moving!!!!
Cool buys: Bachmann going to be a kit bash for $25.00
Lock for my 3 signal light (AT&SF marked)$20.00
$0.90 each...cool!
Had a great time for my 1st show ever but I really don't think there was 350 dealers! Was about 3 g gauge dealers. Shocked not to see more Houston Dealers there!
