Just caught this topic and I thought I would chime in. True about the New Year's weekend because The Raritan Valley Hi-Railers will be at Edison on December 30 & 31, 2017. The size of the layout will be 40' X 50'. Our layout has gone through some changes with newer module scenes and we'd like to share this with all who are interested in seeing it. Secondly, the Somerset facility was sold to a business and I believe it is now a warehouse, for who, I don't know. Third, WGH will be there in March on the 10 & 11 2018 at Edison, and we have applied, but are still waiting for a conformation. That is a great show to be at! The Thanksgiving weekend show on Saturday was packed to the walls with people, so I'm hoping things will get better for the hobby from this point on. Finally, to anyone who has done business with The Big Little Railroad Shop in Somerville, N.J. , Jan, the owner, is closing her doors possibly by the end of this month, or until she sells all stuff out to the walls. It's sad to see another hobby shop leaving the scene, but .....
Stop by the layout & say "hi" to us, we'd like to meet some of the forum members!!!
