I’ll have to check my list twice to see if I’ll be nice.

I’ll probably make the trip again. Worth the 2 hour drive to visit with folks.

Well.................................................... are you going? No excuses you have plenty of time to paln. My club should have our moduler set up so bring something to run.

Jon if you want to stop at a halfway point stop at my place we can get some B-fast. Let me know. There is a good place down the road from me or I can cook something good up.

Al right!!! Breakfast at Shawn’s place. Mind if we have eggs Rooster?

Although im out of the way for most but hey all are welcome but then that means you are going to the show as well. Eggs are a must.

I wish I could Shawn, you guys in the Northeast always seem to have something happening relating to LS Trains. Out here in the Great White North West train events geared at LS are few and far between, unless you are into the smaller scales then there are quite a few…

Sounds s good!

Is this the “Steam-up” that is held in the streetcar barn, sponsored in part by Warrior Run Loco Works ?

If it is; I might be enticed into travelling to the affair, just to meet you guys…and say hello to young Clem…

We will also have our modules set up on the 20th at The Great Stroudsburg Train Show from 9am to 2pm at the Stroudsburg Intermediate School, Chipperfield Drive, Stroudsburg PA.

Please Join us and bring Trains to run.

Yes Fred, that’s the one.

I’m confused. what is the date and time and where. I have my Forney can bring that maybe some flat cars.
I didn’t make anything to go with the Forney yet, it’s just been a bad year for me.
I have plans for a work cabin car might do that this winter, if I get busy. :slight_smile:

Presidents day 2012 is Monday Feb 20

I have not seen an “official notice” yet, but I believe it is all three days of the President’s day weekend. The event is held at the Electric City Trolley Museum on the grounds of Steamtown in Scranton. I’ll try and find something official, even if from last year.

Here is last years thread with dates and a promotional video: http://www.largescalecentral.com/LSCForums/viewtopic.php?id=14399

If nothing has changed then the dates would be Saturday, Sunday and Monday February 18, 19 and 20. The museum’s winter hours are 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM - I’m not sure if they extend them for the steam-up.
