    Tacoma Event: Choo, choo, choose Tacoma’s 14th Annual Model Train Festival

    Posted by Dale on December 14th, 2009

    Maybe it’s not a huge club, but folks who are into model trains are really into model trains. So, I’m probably preaching to the choir, telling the groupies about Tacoma’s 14th Annual Model Train Festival. But for those of you who have never been to one of these before, they’re definitely worth a visit.

    On December 26 through January 2, the History Museum will be filled to the brim with all things train. Come check out the miniature villages and the play area just for little engineers. Since it’s the holidays, the place will be especially done up. There will be no less than 10 full layouts by the major model train outfits, including The Pierce County Lionel Club and the Sound Model Railroad Engineers. So, get on board! (Sorry, couldn’t help myself.)

      Thanks for pointing it out. Are there any pictures of the festival online? I recently visited Miniatur Wunderland in Germany, according to their description the largest model train exhibit in the world. Would love to see some of the model train layouts.

      I haven’t been able to find any photos online at all. If you do, please post them here. I’d love to get a good look at some of them as well.
