I went there to get one (1) thing. Somewhat light crowd, but ample vendors. Saw a few people I know and then I split.

I was there today with BANTRAK.

Pretty much usual vendors.  Crowd was a little smaller than I would have expected, I blame that on the great weather.

Biggest negative today was the new food service vendor.  Short line to place your order followed by an impossibly long wait to actual get your food.  It took them an hour and five minutes, yes you read that right 65 minutes, to fill my order for a shrimp salad sandwich.  It was taking equally long to get a hotdog and chips or chicken tenders and fries, so it wasn't a one-off thing.  My order number was 384 and when I ordered they were filling order 295... I think half the people asked for their money back after waiting half an hour or so.

Different show, same event 😁

This weekend Feb 5-6. Reported today Spring Creek is making the trek eastbound with their mobile showroom.  Might get expensive for some of us

From Nebraska? They might be stuck in Indiana with all the snow.

I should change my direction on the post, they were at Amhearst so they're already east 😁.

It's been a while, has Timonium been worthwhile to find a few n scale items?  Thanks

Usually a fair number of vendors that have N scale, although the last few trips I've come home with just a t-shirt or prints, or both.  I'm getting to the point I'm getting particular about what cars I'm looking for.  It's worth the trip to go though
