    It's that time of the year to get ready for the 2024 Ohio N Scale Weekend. The location for the event is the Union County Fairgrounds at 845 N. Main St., Marysville OH. The dates for 2024 are set up Friday May 17th and the show running Saturday May 18 and Sunday May 19. Check out the show page on our website http://www.centralohiontrak.org/p/the-2024-ohio-n-scale-weekend-show.html for information. Marysville is located to the northwest of Columbus and is approx a 20 minute drive. If you wish to be part of the combined Ttrak layout at this year's event contact Andy at bellboyracing@gmail.com and let him know the types and how many of modules you would like to bring. Also if you have an interest in being part of the Free-Mon layout contact us at our email address at ohionscaleweekend@yahoo.com with what you would like to include and we can get your info to the planners of that layout. Contacting us the earlier the better for these 2 layouts as they will have a max size available.

    If you have any questions you can contact me here or the event chairpersons at ohionscaleweekend@yahoo.com. See you there!

    My group will be there with our Bend-Track layout! (Fortunately I am not the one in charge of registration for the layout, I save that for more responsible members :D)

    Was in hopes of getting back this year, after a 5-year hiatus, but the layout is far from being presentable. As a Cubs fan would say, "Maybe next year."

    I might still come with a buddy for the N scale deals and awesome layouts though.

    Just a reminder the Ohio N Scale Weekend is this weekend (May 18-19, 2024) at the Union County Fairgrounds in Marysville, OH which is Northwest of Columbus. It has always been a fun event and it is all N scale. Vender tables are reportedly already sold out. See you there.

    would have loved to make it again this year, Last year was a kick, but still not up to long drives and being on my feet for any length of time.
    Get lightheaded and Doc's have no clue as to why. Going to miss the convention this year also sorry to say. This getting old is not fun.

    Rich- we will miss you at both! If there is there anything you would like to have shared with the assembled masses at the Manufacturer's breakfast email it to me, and I will read it at the event. Get better!

    Enjoyed seeing all the modelling efforts there. Spent entirely too much money though, Spring Creek alone got a grand of my money...

    There were some good deals to be had for sure. Peco Unifrog (medium radius) going for $13.00 and an Amtrak seven car set (Concor) with a LifeLike F40 locomotive for $50.00 and other items which I already had and didn't need more of or were not in my interest zone. Some great layouts with quite ingenious modeling on display. On the downside, there was no food truck either day and Marysville, OH is not the restaurant capital of the world. But we did find a nice bar with great food and the prices were reasonable. Will definitely return next year and now looking to the Altoona event in September.
