Between the parking fee and entry fee, gasoline, the expenses add up, even w/o eating breakfast across the street at Memo's where many train enthusiasts are having breakfast.
Will agree, between all the buildings, lots to see, too much for 1 day; even a lot for 2 days. Hope the weather cooperates.
I wonder if Al Mayo will also be there.....?
Old Peppersass will be there. It is touring the country.

WC prediction. Partly cloudy, 39 to 40 F each day. Ten to fifteen mph winds. Not bad at all for this area. Memo's will be crowded.

Very nice show today.
Bachmann's E-Z APP™ Bluetooth® is quite the system if you have not seen it in operation.
