This coming Weekend, Oct. 18th and 19th, will be the train show at Manchester, GA. This is a annual event they hold with live steam outside and layouts and vendors inside. Theres also a area setup, thats year round, for the public to view the CSX yard nearby. The door cost was $2 last year, and it doesn't say what it is this year.
Heres some info if anyone else is nearby:

Thanks for the links T-breed.

My wife just told me about it, so I searched it and saw a link to here. I might try to ride down there tomorrow in the wife's new '64 Ford Falcon. :D It'll be a nice day trip.

BTW...between the Falcon ( we've had it a month) and the new job, I haven't had much time for the forums or the layout. Hopefully I'll have more time soon.

We'll be looking for ya there. Our table is setup in the middle of the room. The guy running the table goes by "TrainMan1965" on the WhistlePost.com forums.
You'll find n-scale, HO scale and even some G-scale on it for sale.
The bathtub gons I have listed for sale in the classifieds will be on the table also, if anyones interested. I'm gonna let them go for $120 for all 20 of them at the show, thats $6 each. You can't get 10 Athearn or Walthers cars for that much.:cool:
