I will be arriving Thursday, setting up Friday. I should have at least two boilers on display. Joining me will be Al Francis with machine tools, Tom Diehl who does custom machine work, and Steve Zuiderveen with an assortment of hobby magazines. We will have two adjoining booths inside the 7 1/2" gauge track. Marty Knox

Just a note that the crew from Village Press will be there at the magazines table and book sales. Ms. Clover was there last year and probably will be there again this year, along with the rest of the VP crew.:)
