    Does anybody know who or what company was selling the Kress carrier trucks and bottle cars?
    Those would be welcome additions to my steel mill facility.
    They were in three photos in Mike Wong's album linked in this thread.
    Thanks for the images Mike!!

    Edit- Sorry, have to post this on Mike's photo thread, my bad..

    Hey Chuck, no problems at all! If you want the full size versions let me know. Just give me a link to them or picture number (I'm not sure if that info is available on my website) and I'll e-mail you the full version.

    As for your question, sorry, I don't know. :(

    Does anyone here know what the total attendance was this year?
    I spent most of Sunday at the show, and the number I've heard since seemed a "bit over the top"...
    Thanks,
    Jim R.

    Participants, public admissions or both? Mike Phillips would have the figures but unfortunately he is not a Trainboard member. He has some kind of log in problem. I am not quite sure exactly what it is. Just for the record, I thought Saturday's attendance was a whole lot better than Sunday.

    Thanks for the reply;I should have been more specific.
    Mostly wondering about public admissions- I was recently told "about 15,000" and confess I find that a bit hard to believe.

    I emailed Mike Phillips about the attendance. He replied that the public attendance was 1,574.

    Again,thank you. That's more what I'd expect.
    Sounds like somebody "slipped a decimal"...
