Choo Choo! The Great American Train Show is rolling into town this month

Are you looking for something truly unique to do this month? Consider rolling up to The Great American Train Show, it’s one of the best – and maybe only – ways to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of miniature railroading. Yes, it still exists.

If you grew up in Seattle you likely have fond memories of the miniature train at Seattle Center’s Winterfest. Even a decade ago, this hobby seemed like an old pastime and the fact that it’s still around today makes this show even more special. So what can you expect?
