Those going to YORK

MARTY,

  I'll be getting down there at about 1:30, 2:00 on Friday.  So maybe if everyone can get there at that time we can get the group pic then.  How does that sound?  130 to 200.

Hi Guys,

What I am hearing is between 1:30 & 2:00.  Why not make it 1:45 so we have something to shoot for.

1:45 at the CTT booth.

Everybody OK with that?

I forgot about the OGR thing and can't find the time at the moment.  It doesn't bother me as I wasn't planning to go.  If you go to the open house at the TCA Museum, you will hear basicly the same thing on Wednesday that they say at the OGR get together on Friday.  If not everything is usually posted on the forums in a couple of days anyway.  1:30 is OK for me but I thought it would be pushing Laz a little, was going to give him an extra 15 for traffic around York.  I'll try and remember my camera this year.  If Roy doesn't make it someone better have one.  And no we wont take the picture inside the building.

Marty, did you see Jon's motel question?

Marty:

What time have we established for the MTJ meeting? 

Hi Giz (translate LAZ-Speak),

At this time I plan to be there. John - you mean 1:30 - 1:45 pm on Friday afternoon right?

I have some other travel that could interfere with York a bit, but so far so good.

Hi Giz,

  Sounds good at 130 - 145.  Better brush your teeth and comb your hair for the big pic with all DA GIZ?  See YUZ GIZ at the CTT booth.

I sense that another amusing Kodak moment is in the making here. Take Care.

I think we will be tying laz's hands behind his back before the photo shoot.

Better to use DUCT TAPE.

I can't help but ask.

What the hell is a "GIZ"

My first reaction is you must be kidding

So are you going to York or what?

Just need to make a commitment to taking the time off to do so.

You going?

No. That would be the beginning of a bankruptcy for me. Jim

grrrrr

 I wish I could go. It sure would be something towing an empty trailer and with an unlimited budget.

I was wondering do you guys go to York looking for something in particular or just for something to catch your eye?

DOUG,

   It depends, this time Im looking for a Starlite diner and either a MTH or Lionel 4-6-0?

some of these of the NYC variety:

beyond these - am looking for interesting figures and 40's ear vehicles, as well as lots of "clutter" oil drums, tanks, tires, wheels, crates, pallets etc to fill out some scenes as well as some interesting building kits.
