DAYTON, OHIO (WDTN) - The 35th annual Dayton Train Show, one of the biggest and best in Ohio, returns to Hara Arena. Hundreds of exhibitor tables will showcase all the accessories and equipment needed to start or expand a model train hobby. A complete and operational model railroad will be raffled off on Sunday.

Does your child want to get his or her picture taken with Thomas the Tank Engine? Kastner Photography will be there with Thomas to do that! We also have wooden toy train track and cars for sale.

If you want to just watch trains, they'll have 20 plus portable layouts in different scales set up - the largest collection of portable layouts you'll see anywhere in Ohio, ever!

Do you want to learn how to improve your train layout? Some of the best modelers in the country will be there to share their secrets with you!

Do real trains interest you more than models? Some dealers will have vintage railroad equipment such as lanterns, timetables, and operating manuals and well have historical societies from many of the railroads that frequented the Miami Valley in attendance.
 

Free admission for children under 12 years of age. 11am to 5pm, Saturday. 11am to 4pm, Sunday. Hara Arena. $. Call 937-278-4776
