"..see how many vendors show up this time ..."

Seeing that all the major manufacturers are to be attending the NEW west coast LSTS,   the vendors not showing up would be ... foolish !       End users surely can't complain about the manufacturers (not showing up)  this time  Laugh   

I did not notice did Kalmbach Corp. underwrite a manned "Garden Railways"  booth ?

Thanks for the advise. I have a friend that as it turns out is running at the drags. (Just found out today!)

So I think i'll try to do both.

I'm heading down Friday and I think Friday afternoon and evening is when they qualify.

Nope no secret handshake required, just show up and have fun.

One thing, I saw the NHRA is having a drag meet there same weekend which means the north lots will be busy or blocked off, so I would go into the Fairplex on the 10 freeway side, I was told the best place to park is by the onsite Sheriton hotel on the southeast side of the Fairplex, I cant remember what lot it is but its off McKinley Ave.

   Have fun with your trains

Just a reminder, the Southwest Garden Railroad Show is this weekend at the Pomona Fairplex

http://www.swgrs.com/modx-1.0.0-rc1/

The large-scale-only heir apparent show to the now all-scales Big Train Show is this weekend at the Fairplex, Saturday and Sunday, hope to be there this Saturday, interesting to see how many vendors show up this time now that its not going head-to-head on the same weekend as the BTS.

Fairplex Garden Rairoad will be up and running as weel. See ya there.

   Have fun with your trains
