All-Scale Model Train Show This Weekend At The Domes

Looking for something to do next weekend with the family? Check out the all-scale train show at the Milwaukee County Domes.

MILWAUKEE COUNTY, WI — All sizes of model trains will fill the lobby of The Milwaukee County Domes this weekend., Feb. 10–11, from 9 a.m.–4 p.m.

The Collectible All-Scale Train Exhibit will be held Feb. 10-11, and includes at least one operating layout for each scale of train—from the tiniest models running on tracks about one-quarter-inch wide, to trains large enough for adults to ride. One of the more unique displays is a Lego layout, complete with Lego trains. All of the layouts were created by local train clubs or their members.

On both days, the Milwaukee Light Engineering Society will set up about 100 feet of track on the walkway in the Show Dome and give rides to event-goers. Also in the Show Dome will be Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends. They’ll be huffing and puffing along one of the four tracks throughout the day.
