DEALER APPLICATION

Greetings to our dealers,

It is time once again for show registration. Division 4 MCR-NMRA proudly announces our annual October model train show. The registration window has opened earlier than ever before. Fill out your reservation form and return at your earliest convenience. We look forward to your participation for this great event!  

As before, the show will be at the Cuyahoga County Fairgrounds on Saturday and Sunday October 1 & 2, 2022. Show times will be 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM each day.

  1. Returning Dealers take notice! Your cutoff date is August 13, 2022.
  2. New Dealers need to get their name on our New Dealer Waiting List. This is done by returning the Dealer Reservation Contract with a check for $50.00. Your name is placed on the list by the post mark on your envelope.
  3. Dealers with trailers who will be checking in on Friday: I would like to get you checked in starting at 12 noon.  If you can make it earlier contact me.
  4. There will be no one day dealers! Any dealer leaving Saturday will not be invited back to future shows.
  5. Dealer set up times:  Friday 12:00 PM-9:00 PM and Saturday 7:00AM to 10:00 AM.
  6. There will be 24-hour security Friday evening through Sunday closing.
    1. Dealer Refund Policy: Any cancellations of dealer tables within the last thirty (30) days prior to the show will result in the dealer forfeiting their table money. Refunds will be considered and granted on a case by case basis.  The decision is made by the Division 4 Board of Directors at the Director’s meeting held after the show. 

    Request for refunds must be made in writing and directed to the Board of Directors.

  8. We again will be issuing wrist bands for identification of our dealers. The food vendor will allow you to use the Dealer Only line at the food vendor wagons.  The bands will also help us to keep patrons out of the buildings during the show hours of our Sunday Dealers Only “Walk, Talk and Swap” taking place prior to the opening of the show on Sunday.
  9. A comprehensive list of all vendors will be compiled for the Ohio Department of Taxation (Sales Tax). Please avoid problems and get your vendor’s license and be in compliance.  Any questions can be answered by calling the Columbus Office of the Ohio Department of Taxation at 1-888-405-4089.

The Great Berea Train Show continues our tradition as the premier model railroad show in Northeast Ohio and The Midwest.  Five modern “made for commercial display” buildings, wide family friendly aisles, space for you behind your tables and all in 70,000 square feet.  These remain the trademarks of a Division 4 train show. I strongly encourage you to reserve your tables now to avoid being shut out!  Come join us in October at the fairgrounds.

Best Regards,
