  • Mike the B and O Fan says:

    I live in southern Maryland and have made the long trek to this show many times. It is well worth the trip. My my main interests are in picking up unique tools at great prices, and getting technique ideas for my Z scale layout. However, I leave somewhat disturbed at my lack of talent compared to those who have displayed their layouts. “%&@#^@(^$!! Why didn’t I think of that?” All in all, a great show, highly recommend a visit there.
