How much of this show is running trains and convention vs shopping and buying?

How much of this show is running trains and convention vs shopping and buying?

If you look at it in terms of sq foot I'd estimate..
10% MFGs
30% Layouts.
60% Shopping.

But it's 99.99% N scale.. (I saw one table with 2 HO items on it.. )

Guys, I have some terrible news.

Due to a scheduling conflict I don't think I'm going to make it this year.

I'm really bummed about it.

Bummer Ed!  What about mom and dad?

Bummer Ed!  What about mom and dad?

They'll be there.

I'm really bummed about it because we were going to debut something really cool but now it'll have to be a future show.

Call off the show !  It cannot proceed without the great and powerful voice and laughter of Ed K.

Seriously, move the show

[POVC]

Ooooh!  Time for another "Where's Ed?" video at various spots around Altoona?

[dougnelson]

I will be there.  Flying into Pittsburgh and will take the scenic route to Altoona on Friday.

[MK]

Maybe I can get a family  group photo before the giant group photo at the end?

Oh, there will be clinics this year.  First year they are trying this and I don't know all the topics but I'll be giving a presentation on N-Scale in Japan.     Please look for the schedule.  Supposedly there will be a schedule in your registration goody bag and announcements at the show.

[Rasputen]

If you will be giving a presentation on N Scale in Japan, be sure to speak loudly so that we can hear you over here.

Oh wait never mind.
