Arguably one of the largest manufacturers at the show is the Atlas Model Railroad Company.  Best known for their track, locomotives, and rolling stock in HO and N scale, Atlas is also one of the few manufacturer's of O scale 2 rail equipment.  The Tribute to Springfield layout includes lots of these pieces including all of the track, rolling stock, and the single locomotive.

For many years now Atlas has set up a large booth inside the Mallary Complex which includes working layouts in HO, N, and O scale (3 rail).  In addition, the newest product releases from the company are also typically on display for inspection by show attendees.  This past year, the company put together a great time lapse video showing the process of traveling up to The Big E and setting up their booth inside the Mallary Complex.  It helps give a sense of how much work goes in to pulling this show together.
