I'd check it out but your URLs aren't clickable HTML links on my iOS 7 Chrome web browser.

Type them in yourself. What's the problem, your head being squeezed too tight?

LION can right click on any of those, and then open the URL.
No problem for a REAL computer.

Steve: It looks like a great line-up of vendors will be there. I will attend (wearing my SBK hat) with a friend. We are meeting up at Huntington LIRR station. We will ride to NYP and then take NJT to New Brunswick and then walk up College Ave to the meet.

We'll be on the 10:14 NJT due in at 11:09. If it is inclement weather or the train is delayed we will wait under the trestle and then go to the bus stop for a 11:25 arrival and ride to front door.

Can't wait to see old friends.

Just a suggestion. In the original message the date, and location (although we all know the location) should be mentioned. That way we don't have to look for the flier just to find the date (October 11th 2014).

I will be there with some of my O scale models and some things for the modelers. Doing a little short run production.

Of note of what I'm bringing is the 40th Anniversary Myrtle Q carset 1616A-B-C I've modified from MTH 3rd Ave Q add ons. Yes the roof is cut down and they are heavily weathered.

Alan - thanks for saying you'll be wearing your SBK hat, that means I'll have to wear my BEDT cap in support. No one's made a NYW&B, NY&MB or a BRT cap yet. :)

TD - We are taking the 8:36 from Huntington with a 9:39 scheduled arrival at NYP. This gives up enough time to get to NJT, buy tickets (seniors, of course)and get on the 10:14 departure.

If we take the following LIRR train, that departs at 9:03 and arrives at 10:09, cutting it too close for the 10:14 train.

Seniors can buy tickets on the train for no additional fee.
