By all means, attend this if you have the time.  Here's a link to the schedule:

The layouts are sometimes quite some distance from each other, so plan ahead.  I will be making myself a set of maps for the layouts I plan to go to.  This year, the Massachusetts layouts are mostly on Saturday, except for one, while the New Hampshire layouts are on Sunday.

The Greenberg show is this coming weekend at the Shriner's Hall in Wilmington, and the TDC is the weekend after that. I did the TDC a year or two ago, and had a terrific time. Well worth the driving time between sites.

I have been going to this for many years. There are some beautiful layouts to see both in NH and MA. I've even been lucky enough to operate on a few of them over the years. I plan to go to some on Sunday and maybe Saturday if I can find the time. You will enjoy this tour.
