GFLTC News,

The Greater Florida LEGO Train Club (GFLTC) will NOT be displaying at the Great
American Train Show (GATS) this weekend (July 16-17, 2005) in Clearwater,
Florida. We were just recently informed that they do not have space for us in
their train show floor plan.

GATS asked a LEGO Train club to NOT come to an event?!  I guess they must be
tired of being a popular show and drawing in crowds/money.

It has happened to us and another club that I don't remember the name of.
Apparently there are train clubs that have told GATS that if a LEGO Club comes,
they won't be there.  I was hoping the publicily of the recent NMRA Display in
Cincinatti would change it, maybe in time it will.  My mind is that if they can
tolorate O, S, HO, N, TT, Z, then they can make room for 'L'.

(...) It is just me, or is GATS hard to deal with? I've heard several cases where GATS was just a pain in the a**. I know NGLTC missed a Greenberg show to committ to at GATS show, only to have GATS back out of it. O, S, HO, N, TT, Z... let's see. (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains.org)
