Great show!

It was my first time to the Meet and already plan to attend next year. The venue was awesome, plenty of space, comfortable, access to restaurants/bars, and free parking on property. Model selection was unlike anything Ive ever saw-RTR cars, kits, old/new, lots of brass, and met folks in person I’ve only been able to talk on phone with. There were fantastic deals to be had.

I didn’t do layout tours due to another commitment but plan to do that next year.

Enjoyed myself and thanks to all who make this show happen each year.

Nice video. Those folks are serious modelers and merchants!
I would have enjoyed just a few more seconds on CLW and Stevenson Preservation Lines.

Would liked to have attended, but the cost of doing so was prohibitive. And then the temptation of bringing home yet more stuff that I have no need of is another complication.

Maybe next year?

Maybe it's me, but the segues are messed up. Most shift from one scene to the next and don't drop the first so it's like a double exposure.

It was nice to see some names attached to faces at the very end.
No idea who all those folks were without names.

Great video for those of us who didn't attend. I look forward to the magazine photos when it comes out. Lot's of faces that sorta look familiar, but haven't been in almost 25 years so don't recognize many.

Your post is the first mention I've seen of MMW in some time.

Been very quiet despite MMW being at Chicago. No news seems to be the news there.

Kadee O scale trucks seems a bigger topic now.

Wasn't it rumored that there would be some news at the March meet? Guess the emphasis is on "rumored".

Thought so, but it is interesting that it's sort of a dead topic now by both supporters and detractors.

I saw that and thought that it was somewhat informative; at least when I read it.

Getting there . . . The usual sycophants are defending. Nothing delivered yet.

ButArnold checked in - noting that MMW is not a paying supporter, and suggesting conversation about models actually delivered.
