The
WGH show staff have put together some documents to help plan for the
show. Click the links to see the files. Unfortunately after reading
the document it appears we will not be able to drive into the hall after
all. In addition to that it looks like we are at the furthest point
from the loading dock. Bring your dolly. Good points are that we are
right at the public enterance and next to the Lego and Thomas layouts.
WGH
just announced that their last show broke their previous record for
most visitors. Over 40,000 people attended their show in Philidelphia.
It is thought that there would have been more visitors but the resulting
traffic jam may have kept people from the show. The local traffic radio
reported a 5 mile backup on the road to the show and patrons reported
a 2 hour backup on the freeway for the exit to the show. "This
is believed to be the largest number of people ever to attend a model
train show in the United States."
