Or the Eastern Division can go back to its roots. Drop the dealer halls, and go back to running a show for collectors.

This would constrict the hobby, not expand it. I understand that there was a time before MTH et al when there was low supply, high demand, and prices for Lionel. People "invested" in trains and admittedly some made lots of money. While it may seem attractive to make-believe that the last 30 years didn't happen, there just is no path back to the "good old days".

IMHO the most attractive draw to York IS the Dealer halls. I find it pitiful to see the same old men in the member halls @ York displaying the same old items year, after year, after year.

My totally unqualified $0.02

FWIW, I do agree with you that combining TCA with a Carnival would be Bizarre (pun intended).
