Lar,
Having exibited at most of the major Toronto Train shows ("The Railway Show",
GBTS, The Hobby Show, Ourlands), I can assure you that if they were going to a
show, they would be paid. It's more like a private gathering (at least, that
is my understanding), beling held at a libary.
Not a real "show" at all. (or a 100% Lego show-if you prefer). I've paid my
own way (in essence) to each show I have been to- 1200km/800 miles of travel is
hardly covered by a $60 stipidend :)
