We invite and encourage you to attend the 2010 East Coast Meet being held in conjunction with the 2010 Amherst Railway Society Train Show in West Springfield, MA on January 30-31, 2010. The Train Show is held at the Eastern States Exposition Fairgrounds (The Big E) in West Springfield, Massachusetts. More than 24,000 modelers, railfans, and public have attended the Show each of the past three years.

Where To Find Us At The Show

We also encourage you to attend the show and display your models with us at the show. We have allocated to our club's display area a total of 38 (!) eight foot tables (30 inches deep). We anticipate having plenty of space available but we do want to assign display areas based on an advance registration process. You can sign up for the amount of linear space you desire to display models in 2 foot increments. Special thanks to Dan Goins for volunteering to manage this registration process.

We also welcome vendors to join us at the show in our display area. If you would like to sell models, kits, parts, etc. in our club's display area, sales tables are available @ $130.00 per 8 foot table. We will make every effort to match sellers wishing partial sales tables with others wishing to do the same.

Please register as soon as possible to make the show setup in January go as smoothly as possible. Go to the Registration Page to sign up.

For accommodations in the area for the show, consult the Hotel Listing at the Amherst Society Train Show site. Scroll down to the accommodations section of the page. Many of our club members will be staying at the Days Inn and Hampton Inn, both in Chicopee, MA. It's a great place to hang out after the show with fellow modelers and enjoy some of the most enjoyable people you'll ever meet in this hobby! [posted 11/23/2009]
