I think (but I might be wrong) that on one thread Brian alluded the move was due to his wife's employment. A transfer or something to that effect?

I am going to try to attend but I don't think I'll go the the address in Chuck's first post; it would make me late for breakfast.

The Hamilton Family restaurant's web site says 2027 W. Hamilton Street, and Google Maps confirms this.  At least I think I did it right.

I'll be there

It wasn't an easy decision, but the company that recruited my wife made it almost impossible to say no.  But it still came with a price, I miss my train friends.  The good thing is we're closer to our parents and grandkids.  Thank goodness for the York Meet and my ability to get there.

I would have to leave the house at 4:30am to make it to the breakfast.  When my alarm would go off I wondered if I was crazy going out into the frigid cold to drive two hours to eat breakfast.  But it was always so much more than that.  Once I got in the car the adrenalin started pumping and I'd turn on the Christmas music on the radio or my iPod.  Breaking bread with good friends and seeing and buying trains afterwards.  The most fun you can have with your clothes on!

Have fun, guys!

Here are the breakfast photos from the HamFam and the 11:00 photo shoot.
