    It was a great show this year. Glad I ran into you and Dave on Saturday. So many great layouts and friends this year... man..! If only the O deals were as good. Glad you enjoyed seeing it Nick!

    Nick, I hope you grasp just how much you and the other channels have caused this wonderful resurgence of our hobby. I've been involved in HO and O gauge for more than 50 years and watched the decline with great sadness. It is very evident that your channels have caused a massive boost in interest in the hobby. Thank You so much. I'm going to copy as many of my favorites as I can.

    Wow, just saw the Bristol S Scale layout! That was awesome! I really enjoy your videos! Thanks again for sharing the S Scale layouts and also the rest of the layouts! You do a really fantastic job with narration and editing! Chris, Cbtrainnut on UA-cam!

    Really nice video Nick, Sorry I missed you and Dave at this show. It was a long 5 hour drive up for me and my wife. I did also spend some time visiting my Sister & her husband who live in nearby Worcester Mass. We barely made it thru the 4 buildings and picked up some nice items including the classic 1960-61 Red Security Car which I featured on my UA-cam channel today. Really did not get to look at all the layouts in all the building so I'm very glad that you filmed so many of them here. Hope you had a great time and got some rest after that really long round trip drive. Take care.

    So cool to see at least part of the late Bill Boucher's "Royal S Circus" train on the Bristol Club layout! The train he created is very likely the finest S gauge circus train ever built.
