Gaithersburg Show this weekend

[NW Mailing List]

Thank you Ken and Ron.  Not what I need to spend $$ on right now with layout still under construction.  I’ll wait for a true model RR show.

If you are only looking for model trains,  it really is not worth the drive with the cost of gas these days.  I will have a lot of builder’s and number plates available, a couple of N&W & VGN diesel plates, but no N&W steam plates.

Does anyone know how much model train stuff is at this show as compared to specialty model RR shows, e.g., Greenberg’s Train & Toy Show (Dulles Expo Center in December), that emphasize model railroading.

>> For the first time in TWO years, the Gaithersburg Railroadianna show will be held at the Montgomery County, Maryland fairgrounds on November 5-6-7; Friday-Saturday-Sunday. Yes, it will cost you more to get in Friday and Saturday if you want to "cherry-pick" the goodies FIRST, but if you are an advanced collector or interested individual, it can easily be worth it with one big yummy deal.

>> 
>> The N&WHS will be there and have the newly revised 6-1-1 book available for sale and perhaps some other treasures just in time for the holiday season.
>> 
>> Railroad China is also there and if the RR made it or issued it, it’s likely to be there in one form or era or another.
>> 
>> Books, magazines, videos, builder's plates, timetables, annual reports, photographs of all sorts, what have you and the list goes on and on. There is also usually other transportation material from steamships and aircraft as well. Videos and other goodies should also be there too.
>> 
>> If you only want to attend Sunday, which is the general public day, the admission cost is about $10 and those hours are 9-4.
>> 
>> No football sports should be conflicting as the Washington Football team has their bye week then and Baltimore plays a night game.

>> So guys, this is your final reminder

>> Hope to see you there.
