I'm at Trainfest this weekend. Although I don't have pictures up yet, I do have a few notes of news and first impressions at my website (http://riptrack.net/node/155).
Briefly, deLuxe Innovations (lower case d) was sold and is moving its headquarters to New Jersey. The new company will be called DeLuxe Innovations (note the capital D), and all preorders were transferred to the new company; they also showed several new models. Atlas is showing test shots of the N scale GP38 and GP40 shells, Athearn is showing test shots of the HO and N scale F45 and FP45 and Walthers is showing an operating container crane in HO. MTH is here too (see the thread elsewhere on the UP licensing settlement with MTH), but there wasn't anyone available to talk to me tonight.
I'll have a more complete report later.
