Yes I am going. I live twelve miles away from the Big E. I belong to the Amearst Railway Society and have been going for many years. Always a great show even if I find nothing to buy.
Use to help a guy who still sells there but my legs cannot handle standing very long anymore.
I was always surprised by the amount of buying and selling before the show even opens.

Leaving for our hotel in Springfield tonight as soon as we both get out of work.  Bringing along a "shortened" (4 cars, 1 Alco PA) version of my USA Trains New Haven "Merchant's Limited" to run at the Mohegan & Pequot large-scale layout there. 8)  (Unfortunately, 1 PA is down with stripped gears.  :-\ ).  I'll have a name tag on me if I run across any of you guys there; definetly plan to stop by the Bachmann display!  ;D          Tom
