Cleveland (OH) area train show

Anyone going to Railfest this coming weekend?  I would enjoy meeting up with anyone attending the show on Saturday.  I plan on being there from 10 - 2-ish.  Only one item so far on my to-get list.

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.

Apparently be the response so far I'll be the only at the show.  I guess that means I'll have the run of the place. Laugh

Went to Railfest this morning and wandered around for 2 hours.  Overall, it was somewhat disappointing as far as selection.

I did manage to pick up some Northeastern Scale Lumber 4 x 8 strips for a project.  I also found a couple of NYC locomotives pics (Dreyfuss J-3a Hudson #5450 and a H-10a 2-8-2 Mike) and an ExactRail B&O M-53 Wagontop boxcar in the '37 scheme.

The crowd was down this year, too.  That may have been mostly due to both the weather (currently 79 and sunny Surprise) and St. Patrick's Day falling on the same day.
