A question for "left coasters". I know that "The Big Train Show" has scheduled June 7~8 for the Ontario Convention Center. I have not heard anything over the net, nor hqave I received anything from them in the snail or e-mail, as in years past. Has anyone heard, what GRRs are on the tours this year?, are any in the SD area?, when will they send out the reservaion sheets? Their web site is up and appears to be active, at least you can sign in for email listings, on sign up to be a vendor, but the rest of the site is "non-operational". I mean, I'm trying to send them some money, especially if they are going to be giving "classes" again this year, but cannot seem to get through. I had barrels of fun there last year, and learned a bunch in the classes, and would like to do so again this year.
Rene: Do you know anything????????
