Make tracks to the Michigan State University Pavilion in East Lansing for Michigan’s largest model train show and sale on Sunday, Nov. 10 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. General admission for the annual Lansing Train Show and Sale is $8 and free for children under 12 years, as well as scouts in uniform. For faster service, an express ticket sales lane will be open for customers with exact change.
“The Lansing Train Show and Sale continues to grow every year with a record attendance last year and a sell-out of vendor tables in September,” said John Hartmann, Lansing Model Railroad Club (LMRC) special events coordinator. “There is always something entertaining at our show from watching miniature trains run on modular layouts to shopping for your Christmas gifts.”
With an attendance of over 3,000, people will see model trains running along various-sized modular displays and shop over 500 vendor tables of new and used model trains, tools, artwork, collectibles, DVDs, books, and much more. Vendors come from all over the Midwest, including Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois to sell their trains.
In addition to shopping, there will be various presentations for beginners. The National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) Division 5 chapter will be offering a variety of free demonstrations in the center of the show area.
