Railroad Layouts

What makes Trainfest America’s Largest Operating Model Railroad Show?

The answer is simple. It’s the overall number of model railroad layouts onsite, more than 60 this year, coming from all over the U.S. to showcase their amazing craftsmanship and unique railroad experiences. Aside from the sheer number of railroads on display at Trainfest, layouts differ in railroad scales — from tiny Z scale railroads that can fit into a guitar case to the crowd pleaser larger G scale (also known as garden railroads).

See below for the Model Railroad Layouts from Trainfest 2012.
