I haven't herd anything about them not including a charge on the railroad. Besides the railroad is a seperate organazation from Midwest Old Threshers. When you purchase a ticket that money goes toward the railroad for restoreing locoomotives, maintence anything on the railroad

[engineeringjohnson]

That was my understanding, but I haven't heard any updates since last year, so don't take it for gospel.

The plan was to give a portion of the gate fee to the MCRR, and drop the railroad ticket sales. We'll know what's happening in a few days!

[ReevesMan88]

I talked to a guy that belongs to the railroad as well as I do to and it has been talked about but nothings happen as you said. Lets just wait and see for next year

[engineeringjohnson]

I understand the concern, though from what I am told there will no longer be a charge for train rides on the narrow gauge line.

According to the what I read online it's $20 for a multi-day pass. Camping is $6 to $15 dollars to park (if you can get a space.)

I can't entertain myself most places for that.

Hope you make it in the gate!

Every year that place becomes more of a rip off.

If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything. I for one enjoy the show and the people I meet there. Besides, it's expensive because putting on a show like this is not cheap.

[stinkstorm]

I just heard the tickets are going up in price because they are going to include the price of the grandstand in with the tickets. I'm afraid I won't get to go this year and I'm extremely upset.

@engineeringjohnson stinkstorm probably wouldn't pay 5c for a F**** at a brothel!
