The Annual Mid Michigan Model Train Show and Flea Market will occur on March 27, 2011, 11am – 4 pm, in the Finch Field House on the campus of Central Michigan University, Mt. Pleasant, MI.

This show will please the whole family, so come and enjoy an afternoon seeing operating train layouts, demonstrations, and plenty of opportunities to ask experts about the wonderful hobby of building, collecting, and running miniature trains from tiny Z-scale to mighty G-scale.

Railroads have connected cities and states in this country since the 1860’s. The romance, energy, and variety of these vital links have fascinated children and adults ever since. Children growing up with model trains have an advantage by putting sets together in endless designs, loading and unloading freight and passengers, and then running the trains to wherever they imagine. They are in control, and command an empire.

There will also be many booths offering train sets, kits, rolling stock, and accessories, as well as antiques and crafts to suit a general audience in the large one-room location. Parking is free. Admission is $4 for adults. Children under 10 are free.

Experience what a great hobby this is and talk to the friendly railroading fans who will be there in force.
