I am a newcomer to the board and to model railroading. I recently moved to Indianapolis, Indiana, and there is a Train Show this weekend at the fairgrounds.
It is called "Worlds Greatest Hobby Train Show".
My question..... is it worth going to something like this for a newcomer. Is all the Hype I hear on the radio and read in the newspaper just all talk? announce1
I just don't want to spend the time and effort going to this show and paying the entry fee, just to find out it is just a couple of trains that I could see at the local hobby shop.:curse:
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
