Our club participates in several Special Events throughout
the year.
The Annual Holiday Open House is an opportunity for the
public to view the club layout. It is opened on weekends from the Saturday
after Thanksgiving through the first weekend after the New Year. The doors are open
from
12:00 p.m. (noon) until 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. At the Open House we run 3 or 4 trains
simultaneously over the entire layout and we change out the trains as
running conditions and desire dictate. In 2021, our Open House event will run
on Saturdays and Sundays
from November 27, 2021 through January 9, 2022. The Word
document flyer for the Holiday
Open House can be seen by clicking here.
Our club also partners with the New Eagle Volunteer Fire Department to hold
an Annual Train Show and Sale. Numerous vendors offer their
wares to attendees, there are modular displays so that attendees may see
running trains and there may also be classes on various subjects pertaining to
model railroading. This event is held in the New Eagle VFD Social Hall in
late January at 156 Chess Street, New Eagle.
The date of the next Train Show is January 30, 2022.

We also display our modular layout at the
August Fun Fest in Cedar Creek Park usually held on the
first or second Sunday in August. This is a great chance for us to meet many
members of the public who come out for the fair and introduce them to this
wonderful hobby. This year the event will be held at Cedar Creek Park on
Sunday, August 8, 2021. Look for us in Pavilion 16 near the parking area.
