Just noticed no one mentioned to bring bicycles. Got my English Racer 3 speed on the bay roof, & planning to cruise into town later today. Anyone want to join? Im trying to be up there by 1 today. Maybe others know the town well enough to help with the route.
Looks like great weather for the rest of the weekend  |

I haven't been to this show in about five years; glad I made the trip up once again! Always good to see old friends and make some new.
Kudos to Stan, Mike and anyone else that helps put the full weekend on. Based on all the positive feedback, I'm guessing next year you'll be setting a Guinness Book record for number of busses in the igloo. |

This show is one of my family's favorites. Can't thank Stan and Mike enough for the great camp out and show. Between the great weather, camp sites, fall colors, and friends this was a blast. We will be there next year for sure.

Another great transporterfest weekend in the books, great camp out and show, perfect weather and people, big thanks to Stan for all his hard work and Mike for helping along with the camp site.
We drove about 500 trouble free miles round trip.
Congratulations to all the award winners, they were well deserved, and in particular to my South Philly Van Club brother for his life time achievement award gracefully presented to him by Master of Ceremonies Stan Wolfarth

only my third tour but what another epic event! Each year gets better and better!
We are lucky enough to stay with family just outside of town so camping was out for us this year...here's our version of the Boston experience on Saturday and Transporterfest on Sunday.

So much fun to come down for a great show and take advantage of all the excitement of the city!
