Dennis LaGrua posted:Going to York is an expensive trip for most of us. Two nights lodging, fuel (auto wear and tear), six meals, coffee breaks/snacks and the admission fee and TCA membership ( if you wish to see the whole meet). Add in travel time. Unless you lodge in a lower end motel you are looking at a minimum of $500- an expensive ticket just to get in the door. You are faced with the question, does attendance justify the expense? Go twice and year and that's $1000. That's not inexpensive. You can buy quite a few trains online or at local shows for a grand.
That's my problem, too. I'd love to attend York, but for this retiree, it's just too expensive.
