Fall TCA York is cancelled.

Not unexpected.

That’s unfortunate but the correct decision for the current situation.  Time to cancel those reservations and make new bookings for April and hope for the best.

Let’s look on the bright side. When April 2020 was cancelled I took that money I had saved and was going to add it to my saved October money. Now I’ll add all that money to my April 2021 saved money and certainly have my pockets full. I just pray I live that long to spend it.👍

Ron....I went ahead and made this a featured topic.  Thanks!

Funny somehow I find myself not really being upset about it.  I'm finding I didn't really miss it.  Never did rebook my room for October. Maybe absence will make the heart grow fonder of it.  Until then I 'll spend locally and support the forum. 

If they did decide to have it I probably would have went anyways though.

This is probably a good decision with all that’s happening with the current Pandemic, and will hopefully allow our great medical staff time to prepare a quality vaccine to prevent more spreading. Yes, trains are Fun, however our health and others health are of the utmost importance. Sorry to hear it’s canceled, but hopefully by April 2021 We can have a safe and fun time seeing our friends, our vendors, and of course the trains. Stay safe, stay healthy, Pray Continually. Happy Railroading 

All my York funds have gone to purchases at hobby shops this year plus some nice pieces I have picked up at a few of the online auctions.  

With the demographics of our hobby, and the fact that this is "toy trains for fun and enrichment" except for those in the business, it's a good decision.

Not a surprise.....let’s just hope and pray one of these vaccines works out.

Cancelling is the right thing to do......but I feel for all the York merchants and residents who depend on these kind of “trade shows” to give a kick to their businesses.....

See you all in April, I hope.....

Shocking 

I already discounted the Fall York, there's no way it could go forward in this environment.  Time to change the hotel reservations... AGAIN!

That's no surprise. Did anyone really expect to see a fall show this year?

Smart decision.  In addition to the medical risks, it avoids the possibility that a large segment of train folks would have stayed away anyway, which would have been a major blow.  

Reservations for April have been made - the date falls in what might be my first week of retirement.  

Fingers crossed and hoping for the best.

I even got a better rate for the new April reservations, that was a nice surprise, $100 more to spend at the meet.

Unfortunately I think the 2020 train show season is a wash but better to be safe and ride out the storm. 

Sorry about the show   but it think its a Good call! 

If you want the York experience, crawl under your layout or go into the closet where you store the unused items, pack them in the trunk of your car and drive around the block, maybe a jaunt on the interstate, stop at a fast food restaurant (make sure you pay too much) on October 23rd and then bring them back into the house.  You'll be surprised what you forgot you have already.  

Lets hope we get the vaccine by the end of the year.  I believe that the April meet is the week of April 18th. The meet being on April 22nd, 23rd & 24th. 

Now I have to call the Wyndham again.

Well, Ken Jr and company will hopefully give us another great virtual York come October. That we can look forward to.
