MI.

Hotel Info:
Days INN (about 22 miles from the Convention center): $49.02 per night (tax

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A CONVENTION!  This is a train show (aka expo). Traditionally
we have a party night and other after hours ad hoc gatherings (after a long day
at the show) for dinner and drinks (soft and hard).
