When asked about the sale David Swanson, President of CIA Incorporated made the following comments:

- “I am thrilled that two employees who have worked for me for over 15 years each decided to embrace the opportunity to own their own businesses. I can’t think of two better qualified people to own and manage these shows.”

- “I think separating Greenberg Shows from the Great Train Expo is an excellent idea. This allows the unique aspects of the Greenberg shows to be highlighted. The spirit of cooperation between Train Show Inc. and Train Expo Inc. will ensure both are successful and will provide benefits for exhibitors and attendees. “

- “Having been in the train show business for over 35 years it is time to pass the torch to new leadership. While I will still have plenty to do with our advertising agency and the World’s Greatest Hobby on Tour Shows, this sale does allow me to slow down a little and focus on new opportunities. I am very happy that Randy Bachmann has agreed to continue to help with the show management of the World’s Greatest Hobby on Tour, while building his own business.”

- “Randy Bachmann and Bill Grove have been involved in the day to day decision making and execution of this business for the last 15 years. There could not be a smoother possible management transition. In most cases they know more about the details of the business than I do. I am gratified that they have agreed to allow CIA Inc. to continue to perform the advertising for their shows. Kurt Jablonski will continue to perform the show advertising as manager of the CIA Inc. advertising agency.”

A primary goal of the sale is a seamless transition for customers. All show dates and reservations records have been transferred and in most cases customer contacts have been preserved. Train Show Inc., Train Expo Inc. and CIA Inc. will share certain assets which can benefit all participants, such as databases and mailing lists. In addition David Swanson will be acting as a consultant to both organizations to provide his perspective and historical information.
