Large Scale Central

ECLSTS Show 2023

Each year the Aikenbacks are there, I’ll bet a couple screwdrivers and other tools drop down to say Howdy to the pile of car keys down there. :laughing:

I am a bit disappointed I will not be able to make it (like anyone cares).
Have fun, be safe and healthy.

Hey there Lou,
Bummer you can’t come. Maybe you’ll be at Amherst?
Cliff

Lou; I care…!!
but I wonder if anyone cares about Yours, and My attendance !! We are two old folks…from the old gang in York…I did meet Cliff one or twice…and I remember you…!!
I hope everyone has a great time.
Fred

Well, Cliff, my wife and I will be off then, but headed in the other direction to the Lancaster area.

Thanks from another old guy, Fr. Fred. As i sit and reminisce, I am going to dig out all of my old pictures and post them. Remember when I had everyone pose with the erasable board? I have them somewhere.

Lou, remember that evening at the 2019 York show, when you and Hollywood and I set up the last Alcove there, centered on your excellent Timesaver?

I’ll always appreciate that episode with you and Dave.

Lotsa familiar faces in that last shot…

Those were good times at the Wyndham Garden Hotel.

Aikenback Live Steamers setup in parking lot while show was being setup by vendors. Opens tomorrow.

I remember them well.

I had a lot of fun at the show on Friday. Chatted with some friends, bought some stuff, watched some trains running, ate some pizza. A good day, in my book. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Here’s video just posted on YT, emphasizing the Aikenback live steam layout in the parking lot.

Thanks Cliff;

Enjoyed seeing the little live steamers go through their paces, and seeing folks I used to boil water with. Someday I hope Gandalf will pound the Aikenback rails again.

Best wishes, David Meashey
