The Company Store was again a highlight of the Show. There was a high demand for the railcar on the platform, as was the Tower, which exceeded all previous shows. Thanks go to the Bluegrass Band, which was playing on both days. The band had many fans, who enjoyed the weather, as well as the band. The All Day Lunch was so successful that restocking overnight for Sunday was needed. The variety of offerings was a high point, including World Class chili by Ed DelPrete. Both parents and kids’ eyes lit up as they followed the trains passing by on both layouts. A Photo Gallery is included in this issue, which starts on Page 4.
