Please refer to the following link to the Home Page of the Niagara Frontier
Region/NMRA for the official statement re the Train show and Convention
http://www.ml2003.com/pages/Convention%20Notice.html
Basic text is as follows:
NOTICE
The NMRA has advised Maple Leaf 2003 that they have cancelled the National
Train Show which was to have been held in conjunction with the Maple Leaf
2003 NMRA National Convention.
This cancellation does not affect the convention which continues to offer a
full program to all registrants.
The Maple Leaf 2003 organizing committee is currently investigating other
options including operating a local train show, and/or offering hobby shop
tours to convention registrants.
As further details are determined an open letter will be posted on this
page, the NMRA website and through a direct mailing to all convention
registrants.
Registration at the convention continues to be strong though the National
Train Show will be missed.
Alternative programming will be offered to ensure registrants have a full
range of activities available to them.
