@Jim Policastro posted:TTCS was one of those clubs where many joined just so they could get tables at some really excellent train shows across central and western New York State.
Back when I was actively buying and selling trains, I always did the TTCS shows in Utica at the old train station every January, Oneonta in late August, and others in the Syracuse area.
Utica always amazed me as we might get 6 to 10 inches of snow during the show, but people would still be pouring in the door all day long. Hardy folk!!!
The Rochester and Buffalo area shows were a little far away for me, but were also excellent shows.
Good times.

The Utica show is a great show. I haven't been to it since I left New York back in 2014 to return to Massachusetts. K&K Train and Hobby in Utica NY was wonderful train shop in its day. At one time, the Utica area had three train shops: K&K Train, another one in New Hartford and one in nearby Vernon NY. Now there are none with the closet one @JR Junction Train & Hobby .
Does anyone remember the late Charlie Brown who ran a train shop in North Syracuse twenty years or so ago? Very nice man Rest In Peace.
