New York's Largest Train Show!!!

A few times a year, Greenberg Train Shows puts on the largest train show in the New York City area at the New Jersey Expo Center in Edison, NJ! This was my first time attending the show. Seeing model trains from all manufacturers in G Gauge, O Gauge, HO Scale, OO Gauge, N Scale and even some Z Scale was amazing.

In 2006, I was a 19yr old tourist from Australia, and actually visited this train show in Edison, NJ!

What a massive event this was and also how much cheaper model trains were here than they are back home!

Anyhow I enjoyed this video and it reminded me of those times

Greensberg is great. You should go to the Amherst Train Show which is in 4 buildings at the Big E in Springfield MA

I met Stu Rankin at the Metca booth today, he was such a great guy!

I was there Sunday. I couldn’t find any MTH curve track ( O-72 and O-54) and that was the main reason for my visit. I did enjoy looking at the layouts. Especially, the Raritan River with all those lights and details. I was impressed by how well the trains ran on all those modular layouts. It’s a testament to all the club members.

Love ya RJ, so I'm willing to overlook (AHEM!) those New Jersey wiecracks. Maybe. Possibly. Kinda-sorta.
Anyway I'm sure your trip out to Edison for the Greenberg show was kind of like getting the COVID jab, it didn't hurt a bit now did it? The only thing I resented about getting the jab was no lollypop afterward!
It's been a while since I've been to one but I have to say the Edison Greenberg show is really the "Gold Standard" of Greenberg shows! Man, if you can't find it at one of those shows it's just not to be found anywhere! I was lucky enough to have some Edison shows coincide with some visits up north and I did come away with some good stuff!
And that FDNY switcher's gorgeous! A great tribute to the best fire department in the world!
(And I mean absolutely NO disrespect to any others by that observation!)
Thanks for bringing us along!

Great chatting with you in person
Save that money for the big ticket items
You are a class act young man
Happy thanksgiving

[Mike-tgdj]

Nice switcher. I think they should run high nose backward.

Hey, RJ, thanks for sharing your visit to the show with us! I loved seeing all of those layouts. I was not surprised this time that you did not purchase anything from the show. That MTH RES2CUE switcher is pretty sharp though! Bill B.

Great video RJ and great seeing you. I always enjoy the Edison show. That was a really nice gift from Mr Via Rail aka Dan.

[scottfrezza]

I had a good time 4 hour drive for me but it’s worth it !! Left with some good stuff !!

[keithjackson]

rj keep and eye for those E8s Amtrak that you have for me!

[LousTrains]

I like the Greenberg show as has a lot of good stuff in scale and semi scale and keeps it in one room. Big retailers and private sellers as well. Although cost prohibitive I would like to see more larger shows in NYC or northern Jersey, there is a large population there surprised there isn't more. Too bad Trainworld doesn't come out to any of these, that would be very dangerous to the wallet :) Nice video glad you made it out there!

[Michaeltrains]

Nice locomotive also I bet the ride back and The way there was a long ride .

[DerekWalther]

While you were on your road trip you should of checked out Northlandz, you were @20 minutes away

[jimmytrains]

I was a vender at the show and was disappointed. The Edison show is a Greenberg train and "toy" show. I would say a lot of what was there was not train related. There were lots of toys. The highlights were the lego layout, the Raritan Valley Hi-Railers, TCA Metca, and Gryboskis.

Congratulations on resisting the "BUY ME!" scream from all those locos, rolling stock, and buildings! Nevertheless, you received a beautiful present which I would say more than makes up for your self-control.
