• Ang & I will be attending & look forward to a large meet up of forum members. Doug ,if you make it the "Henry Ford" Museum and Greenfield Village you will absolutely love it, you might want to check into hotel and Museum package deals as they can save you a lot of money, most hotels/motels in that vicinity offer a package deal.

  The N.A.M.E.S. show is taking place April 27-28, 2019 at the Yack Arena in Wyandotte, Michigan, USA.
  
  www.namesexposition.com
  
  This is the second best show in the USA for all things steam (IMHO Cabin Fever is Numero Uno).
  
  I know that Gil and I will be attending.  Gil will be exhibiting.  I am flying in for the show and will not be exhibiting as a result.
  
  Please post in this thread if you are planning on attending.
  

  
  Charlie, i have to disagree with your #1 and 2 ratings! Coolspring has to be in there somewhere-I would put it at #1 if you like to show, buy, and sell for 5 days. Of course i might be prejudice since i only live 20 minutes from it and can go every night! Of course, I have never been to NAMES, so may ahve to re-evaluate in a few weeks!

  Fair enough Doug.  I thought of Coolsprings as more full size and hit and miss engines rather than toy steam and engineered models.  But, I haven't been to Coolsprings.  I hope to rectify that in 2020.
