Yes Lionel, Atlas and some dealers were missing.IMG_E3243

There were plenty of deals to be had; MTH had 200 series Lionel Corporation for $50.00, O-Gauge tinplate cars for $30.00. I saw a MTH Ives Prosperity Special engine and cars for 900.00 at Just Trains. These are hard to find. Speaking of hard to find over in Blue Hall a MTH Ives White Set for $1200.00. 263E's in Orange Hall for $329.00. Bargains everywhere, however since money is tight I had to pass on these deals this trip.

So the question is was I disappointed? Not at at. I was shocked when my wife encouraged me to take the trip this week. She had a double mastectomy the week before York and I was fine missing this one under these conditions. She thought it was important to get my son away from the house for a few days and give him a break from all what has gone on.   

That brings me to why I started this thread. I want to thank everyone who stopped me at York to ask about my wife. I want to thank everyone who is praying for her recovery. It really means a lot to me to have friends that offer that kind of support. York and this forum is not just about trains it's about the great friends we make along the way. Thank you, you guys are the best.
