here in Montral,we have few model trains shows,we used to get the MRMA Canada-Central open house,2 times a year,but it's now over cause the club is now closed and searching for a new local..
andd we have another show,twice a year too,it's Expo-Modelist event,that regrouping all kind of modeling,like die cast,planes,boats and trains,but always 2 or 3 layouts are in operation,usualy,we have a G scale layout,a Lionel Layout and a Lego train layout and many model sellers..and since 2 year,I see a kit of 3 CN heavyweight cars,painted with the wet noodle for 90$,and the guy who have it,never want to make a bargain,it's been 5 times I have a try to bargain them and nothing to do
And starting this week-end,we have an old trains exibition at Sun Youth local in Montreal,this exxibition was going on in the early 90" and have stopped for few yaers and they start back next week-end for an exibition..if it's the same like in the past,we will have N scale,HO scale and more in layout operations,we will have lot of sellers all around,that place have 2 floors and I just hope they will do like before and use both floors,I remember in 1993,I was 18 and I buyed my first HO train set,that I still have today,and it still work great,I run it sometime on my layout,It's a CN F unit,the shelt is from Life-Like,but it fitted on a Atheran F unit bottom frame,3 Box cars,One Proto1000 and two Athearn Blue box and the CN caboose,also from Atheran BB series,I got that set for only 15$,that's why I buyed it,cause the low price,and I get the track and power pack set for 5$,it was a 18" radius curve and 6 9" straigt sections and a Life-Like power pack
Actually the entrance fare is alway's turning around 8$ for every places and it's usualy on two days,most of the time,you can go in the first day and pay the fare,and come back for free the day after,but a lot of peopples who come in the second day,prefer to pay again to make a better supporting ,myself,I use to pay for the second day..for sure,I want them come back to do another show..
