Strasburg Pa - O Scale 2 Rail Only Train Show/ Swap Meet

I’ll be there with a ton of great deals. Reducing my inventory. As it’s said: ‘My loss is your gain’!

Will Bob Lavezzi have his wall of trains and Weaver parts?

I hope to be there this time with a good selection of kits, brass cars (clearing out the inventory and roster), scratchbuilt cars (been a busy year, ), and lots of structures..........

Dear Forum members,

Bob/Karen Lavezzi a s well as the usual suspects  will be there.

Our last show in October 2020 was the O scale track show- the most selection I have ever seen !!!!

Martin,

shoot me an email please.

I'm planning to be there as well!

Under Calendar response RadioRon asked;

"Do you have many attendees at a Scale 2 rail event ? It is such a tiny sub-group of O gauge.

Good luck though!"

Dear Ron,

We generally have between 200-250 attendees / dealers  to the event and 85 to 100 tables reserved.

As our event is one of only a handful in the United States that cater strictly  to our O Scale 2 Rail fraternity we appear to satisfy the attendees with dealers and modelers selling there excess treasures.

Since you live in Delaware, hope to see you on the 17th of April,

Thank you,

John

    It will be interesting to see what will be the future of this iconic line of kits and parts

   John asked if anyone has any particular wants to bring to the show to email or call him.

All for now.

Looking forward to this meet; will be clearing out a good bit of my inventory/collection of rolling stock (brass & scratchbuilt), kits, "stuff", and probably 15-20 scratchbuild buildings.

I'm looking forward to this one. I've been a number of times, but this will be the first since I actually (finally?) switched to the dark side and took up 2 rail.

I will be bringing a large quantity of late model Atlas  two rail flex.

Dear List,

The show is now SOLD OUT of dealer tables.

See you all 04/17/2021.

John P. Dunn Sr. / Rich Yoder

I'll be bringing  PRR  & NH electric engines.

If your into 2 rail O scale  This IS THE PLACE TO BE !  YOU WILL FIND THE HOTTEST NEW MODELS AND SOME GOLDEN OLDIES AS WELL.  Along with plenty of  information and good conversation with fellow O scalers.  Its a group of nice folks  who get together and do some trading and selling.

I hope you all can make it April  17 th, Strasburg PA

  O scale Carl and I will  be there with a few things of our own to swap or sell.

SEE YOU THERE

Is it worth going for someone interested in 3-rail O scale? I'm not too far and was looking for an excuse to come up to Strasburg, but at the same time, I don't want to get my hopes up that I will find anything worth spending money on here. I do gravitate towards 3-rail-scale over traditional O scale.

Dear PRR7688,

While the Strasburg show is a 2 Rail only show, I find that 15-20 percent of our attendees are 3 rail scale modelers . They come to the meet to purchase such things as Kadee couplers , building and rolling stock kits and parts.

Look forward to meeting you on the 17th!!  John

Just go. It’s $5 to get in and they have trains.  I’ve gone many times as a 3RS person and if nothing else there’s lots of interesting things to look at from less than $1 up to a mortgage payment. I have come home with stuff from time to time.
