Question Who is going to the NTS and what scale

I'll be there with the gang on the Golden Black-hawk and Central City Z scale layout.

 

When is this show?

 

July 19-21, 2013 in Atlanta, GA http://nmra2013.org/national-train-show

Thom & Ellen from the MidweZt HaulerZ will be displaying their Z scale modules there.

 

I will be there in body and spirit, and not necessarily both at the same time. The drive from Arizona to Atlanta will take alot out of me so if you see me there and I am non-responsive, then it will be my spirit you will be visiting with as my body might be asleep!

I'll try to have my modified Z MOW DCC Truck working for the show!

 

AZL will be there with a full booth. Hans and I will man the booth for AZL, Rob Kluz will be there for Ztrack. I understand that MicroTrains will be there too, but I have also been told that Joe has picked up his interest in HO these days and isn't doing too much in Z.

There is a large area that we reserved for Z scale because I thought that the Gotthard (Part II) was going to be ready in time for the show, but that plan fell through, so plenty of space for modules!

 

I'm in the process of making plans to be there now.

Anyone have any advice for driving 700+ miles each way with out a copilot?.

 

STOP and walk around the car every couple of hours. ...based on 750,000 miles on the road and a few hundred hours as pilot-in-command. Instructions need to be revised a twitch when flying.

Just strap on the mask and take a few hits of O2 - usually good for at least one approach to mins.

 

Mmmhhh... No O2 mask on my 60-hp ultra-light twin-seater... And on the big screaming steel I'm earning my living on, my mate is going to oddly stare at me if I grab the mask while descending for the final approach, after a red-eye night flying over the Atlantic...:teeth: Sorry guys, won't be able to make it at NTS this year once more...
