Eric - I'll get to your message when i get some more info, i don't
remember how much the tables cost, but you're right, more than $15 each!
:) I seem to remember an $800 bill, but I can't recall how many that is
for, etc.
David - For our Manassas show, it's a one day event - Sat only... we can
get there at 7am and i believe it opens at 10? So that's 3 hours total,
trains have to be running by 10, and everything under the tables.
For Greenberg, they put us nearest the doors, we load in friday night,
2-3 hour set up, come back sat morning, put on finishing touches, start
running trains, sunday for strike we are the first out typically, and
since we're nearest the door, we *have* to be quick, so others can get
their HO modules and such out, etc.
