Walking the floor at the D23 Expo with Lowell – September 2022

For those of you that were not at the huge Disney event known as D23 Expo, here is a quick video of the floor and behind the scenes. I thought it would be fun to show, as most of you were not there. The next time this event happens, (planned for 2024), you would need to secure your tickets within days of the announcement as they sell out very quickly.  

My walk was brisk, and I only covered about a tenth of the floor. Seriously, only a tenth!  You will love at minute FIVE, when I land at our booth and a wonderful, very unplanned, interview with Bob Olszewski. What a delight! The last minute of the video is the floor, full open and full of people! I hope you enjoy it. I did it for you!

I look forward to continuing to buy trains from my favorite special run train maker. That’s how I think of you now, “The Train Maker”.  And speaking of cool trains, I just received a box loaded with great looking Texas Special cars. Thanks.  I certainly look forward to all the new releases you are planning.

R.L.

Ferdinand Magellan is great! This really fits your mission of offering significant cars that otherwise wouldn’t be produced.

Linda and Pete B.

Just wanted to thank you again for the opportunity to be with you and the many other happy folks who experienced the Feather River Canyon trip.  I know you put a lot of work into making this special trip a reality and it all came together extremely well!
