I have different thoughts on TCA. I have long thought the facility at Strasburg too
small...no auditorium for mfrs' presentation (having to stand through them. plus
their fetish for elecronics is why I have not attended those for a while), and no
parking for those attendees. I think their real estate parcel is too small. I do NOT
want it moved to the west coast. NMRA, when I have looked at their application forms
over time have always seemed to emphasize HO and N, and weren't attractive to me
even when I was in HO. I have visited the Tennessee Valley Museum and did not
notice/realize the NMRA HQ was next to it. I have visited Sacramento's museum
several times when my job sent me there, but that is not a nationally central location.
