All aboard! The 13th Annual Delavan Train Show arrives in downtown Delavan March 21 and 22. The locomotive-themed event runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.
Featuring 25 exciting model train layouts spread throughout downtown Delavan in more than 11 locations, the Delavan Train Show is an event not to be missed. Bring the whole family for tons of interactive fun.
Start exploring the 25 train exhibits, many with active operating layouts, at the American Legion Hall, 111 S. Second St. There, visitors will receive a special “ticket” to be punched at each of the locations throughout downtown Delavan for a chance to win great prizes. The “tickets” will also be available at each of the locations.
Stroll through downtown and stop at each location within walking distance, or hop on the trolley to get around in style. New this year will be exhibits featuring LEGO layouts.
Each exhibitor’s goal is to entertain visitors of all ages. The exhibitors are dedicated to creating fun and family friendly layouts. While some layouts have seek-and-find activities, others have buttons that operate accessories on the layout.
A few layouts even give people a chance to be the train engineer. Inspiration to join the model train layout hobby abounds throughout the two-day event.
The Delavan Train Show continues to grow every year, and typically attracts more than 6,000 visitors. With free admission, free parking, food and beverages available, and exciting raffle prizes, the Delavan Train Show is guaranteed to provide good old-fashioned family fun.
