Coolspring PA. 2015 Flame Ignition Expo!
« on: April 24, 2015, 01:19:08 AM »
For antique engines this is going to be the show of the decade.

Not really a model engine show but you can bet that there will be some models on display at the show. I was wondering if any of the MEM guys are planning on going?
I know Maury, Roland M, Marv H, and I are planning on being there; anyone else?

I was last there 20 years ago at the first Flame Expo and had a great time; this time it promices to rival any show in the world.

At that time the 600hp Snow was scattered about in pieces, now it is assembled and running in it's own building. The work and projects the musem crew accomplish is nothing short of amazing. Maybe if there is enough interest we can arrange a group picture.

Well just make sure you all take your cameras ;)

A friend of mine who has quite a few Hit & Miss models from Ireland is making the trip, you may have come across him, signs off as "Dave from the Emerald Isle" Waiting to see what he may bring back.

I know Dave,

Looking forward to catching up with him; along with all the other guys. It would be fun to get a group shot but Coolspring is a huge place and not sure what time or location would work best. I would think meeting at the Susong building might be the best place. This is where all the flame ignition engines will be on display.

That sounds good to me; I can let Rolland and Marvin know in case they miss this post.

I was looking at the website and was wondering if they will be running lots of their (the museum's) own engines like they say they do on the History day a month later? Never been there, sounds like a great place. Probably will be there Thursday or Friday.

Hi,
I went to the fall show and swap meet two years ago. Didn't know anyone there, I think it was before I got very involved in this forum. We combined the trip from Wisconsin as anniversary and family visit. I really enjoyed the CSM. I took lots of pictures which I was able to label because of CSM's great and well documented website.(and lots of time at the in-laws to do said documenting)
It is the busy season at work can't get away now. :-\ Hope you all have a blast.
