Looking at this from an outsiders perspective.....the York Train meet/show is very much hyped as being the BIGGEST, BEST show for O gauge/scale in the hobby. A farm toy show that I'm a vendor at has the solution to the early bailers. In our show contact it states that NO EARLY takedown/packing is allowed and the show management DOES check/police this. The penalty for doing so is that your table/booth contract will NOT be renewed for the next years show.
Sure its great to get out and get home after a tiring show, but how many get there 1 or 2 days BEFORE the show just to "look around"??? Staying set up for the last day should be just as important as being setup for the FIRST day!!! So if the TCA decided to do something it wouldn't be very hard to enforce. If your vendor spot is empty before the show is done, you won't be back at next show. Pretty simple solution to simple problem.
