Reply to "Which major players will NOT be at York this fall?"

Sure sounds like a different York than all others I have attended. And I haven't missed one since 1993. I am on the "time to get rid of stuff" side of this hobby, with no compulsion to do it quickly. I enjoy the camaraderie at York. I will no longer be going to the Spring York meets because we will be in FL then.

I think that looking at the ROI on a specific show is a red herring (false measurement) for manufacturers and dealers. Lionel does not sell at York and MTH sold only parts. So they weren't there to sell. Relationships with customers are important and those get cemented and broken at events like York. Good will is also an important factor for any business enterprise. I understand the risks of COVID and the importance of having healthy employees. You cannot open your doors or ship product with people who are out sick.

I am looking forward to York. And while I am on the "get rid of stuff" side of the hobby, if I see something I really want...........
