The only NTS I have been to was the Portland Oregon one in 94? I had no idea at that time how big of an event this show really was, being as I was only 13 or 14 years old. I think I only ended up seeing about 20% of what was there as my Father took me and really had no interest in trains. I am planting the seed now to convince the wife that Grand Rapids is a nice vacation spot next summer...WISH ME LUCK!! Probably will be the Portland show 2015 that I actually will make it to....
