the bach man is usually there.
in a couple weeks or so you can download documents to plan what you want to see and were they are located.
be aware, sometimes at the last minute, a location can change. there are always plenty of volunteers to help.
i only live a few minutes away. if it is really cold, dress warmly as the parking lot is big.
be aware also, there can be long lines for the atm. bring plenty of cash.

A huge show for those who have not been there. make your shopping list and locate the vendor's you want to see from the link I posted some time ago.

Bachmann Trains is in The Better Living Center, the largest building. All of section 20 and 21.
Youth in Model Railroading is in the Mallory building, section 143.

Major national manufacturers and publishers will attend this Show which was rated number one of the top three in the nation in a recent Model Railroad Industry Association manufacturer's survey.

And the countdown begins! I'll likely be at the hub division switching with New England shortline power.

I'll be operating with ABEL in the BLC both days unless I'm off visiting or shopping.
