At the end of the show several of the Weaver steamers mentioned above were left, with a $475 ea price tag on them.

 

Thanks Sam, I look forward to next year.

Glad that you found the things you wanted.  I was not so fortunate. 

 

The PSC heavyweight car was one of the few PSC brass items at the show (other than the items on the surrounding tables with Steve G).. I think there were perhaps two Overland brass pieces also.  No "premium" brass sans a few Rich Yoder locos.    One of the few PSC freight cars was an N6b cabin that was "factory painted" for $350. 

 

Perhaps what we need is to find a way of rating the contents of the shows we attend since we're all looking for many different things.   Some want expensive things, some want flea market items... though we all want bargains! 

 

And for some of us it's a long haul to attend a show, though for me I made a mini vacation out of it. 

 

All in all thanks for everyone who showed up!
