I typically love going to train shows, not just for the fact of a day out enjoying the hobby in a way other then building or weathering or the usual but in part for the hunt. The search for that elusive locomotive, or set of passenger cars.......hum sound like anyone we know.. 
Lately more often then not when I go to train shows there seem to be more and more vendors with tables full of non train related stuff. I've seen RC toys, doll house stuff, toy cars and a whole pile of useless junk. How about you guys when you go to a train show do you want to see train only stuff no matter what the scale and maybe the memorabilia stuff or the rail fan aspect of the hobby or do you even care that they are more like flea markets then trains shows .

I reject your reality and substitute my own
