Thursday, April 19th, Pre-York Breakfast.....Pics Added

I'll be there! Thanks for your effort 

Peter, I think I will be making a day trip to York this spring, probably Thursday.  If I can get rolling early enough, I'll be at breakfast, though may get there late.

We are dropping a good bit of money into two ACL operations for the little dog who likes to bark at my trains.  Therefore, I thought I may not go to York at all, but registered anyway.  I now have a Pick-Up-At-York deal to complete, and am going to list a few more items today.

Here is the poor pooch, who probably hurt the ACLs jumping off that couch.

I plan to be there, Lord willing. 

I'll be there! It's the perfect way to kick off the York meet!

-Greg

Me and Vinny will be there

I'll be leaving early to make it there on time!!

Can’t make it so I’ve been stocking up at home. 

I’m staying next door, I’ll be there Doc. 

I will be there.

Please add me to the list.

Zac

I'm looking forward to it Peter. And since you made it to Trainstock, I will not be bringing you a hat. Unless you want one.

Gerry 

Gerry......no hat needed....I’ve been wearing mine proudly since TrainStock!

Peter

Peter, Looks like I won't make it to York until Friday.  I'll try to catch everyone at the OGR meeting instead!  Eat heartily!!

Yep, we will plan on it. Stay on track!

Peter, I plan to be there--this will be my first OGR pre-York breakfast. It will be a quick visit as I'll have to get to the fairgrounds to set up my table. Thanks for your efforts with this.

Folks - I will miss breakfast this time around. My son came home today and informed me he had been named his high school's student of the month for April for the sophomore class.  Turns out there's a celebratory  breakfast with the faculty at 7:00 am on the 19th so obviously I will be attending that before heading to the meet. I'll miss everyone but hopefully will see many of you around the fairgrounds.

Peter, I am a proud member of the NJHR and have been a proud wearer of the Trainstock hat for years. This year, however, I will be wearing a Philadelphia Eagles hat. The first professional football game I ever attended was the 1960 NFL Championship. The Eagles beat the Packers. Its been a long time.

Gerry.....I know how proud you must be......the Eagles are are great "feel good" Story.

I think Philly has the best sports stadium set up with everything in South Philly, easily accessible by the Broad Street subway.

See you soon,

Peter

BTW, I've been wearing my Villanova hat lately!

(instead of my RR hats)

Greg.....understood......family always comes 1st....congratulations!

Peter

And after breakfast, if you get to the Fairgrounds with nothing to do until noon....

Stop by and visit my portable layout.  Trains running, whistles blowing, DCS dcsing...

I've been bringing my portable layout to York for a few years now.  Gives me something to do as we wait for the grand opening, (weather permitting.)

Just look for the big grey van, with its teeny tiny layout, about 100' in front of the purple Hall doors in the RV parking area!

Stop by and say, "Hi"... no headcount required

Peter, hope the piggyback on your thread is OK!

Now THAT is cool!  

I will definitely look for it.

Thanks Peter!  Me and the missus have no idea where he got his "brains" from but we're glad the good Lord blessed him.

I'm out for the loop, I guess. I thought Round The Clock had a fire and was closed?

SCHER. I guess you didn't read the post. It was a April fools joke.

Peter-

I would like to make it if I’m all set up in the Orange Hall. That said, as of right now I am a definite maybe with an ambiguous excuse.

Nobody goes to Round the Clock any more, it's too crowded.

I'm going to be there if I get up early enough.

You're a 'Nova guy? My niece is a proud graduate. I'm old, but remind me to tell you my first recollection of Villanova.

Gerry

After seeing that there is a portable layout to view, I'll be there, probably between 8:30-9 .  I'll eat second shift.

Very cool. Not only are you ahead of the NJHR in your use of DCS, but now I understand how you were able to get all those treasures home from Trainstock!

Gerry

I just got off the phone with the manager of the Round-the-Clock Diner and made our reservation.....he is excited to show off the newly renovated diner.....

PLEASE NOTE........we have room for everyone who may change their mind or who hasn't signed up yet......come and share breakfast and feel the pre-York excitement.......as I have said before, it's a great place to put a face with a name.....the reservation is for 0830...I'll be there around 0800.

Peter

York fever, catch it!  

I won’t be able to leave Butler Until after that.  I hope to see as many as possible later in the day or Friday!!  

Hopefully I’ll be able to get breakfast with you in October!

That's why Peter gets reservations ahead of time...  sounds like a plan to me!

Safe travels to all......

Peter

Hey everyone, Craignor and I will be there!

Wonderful!

Peter

Brian--looking forward to meeting both of you. 

John

Likewise, John!
