Annual Holiday Train Show
The Short Line Model Railroad Club, located at 11 South State Street, Ephrata, will hold its annual Holiday Train Show every Saturday and Sunday from November 25 through January 14, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The entrance to the exhibit is located in the rear of the building. This wonderful family event is free and open to the public; however, a donation to the club is appreciated. Guests to the train show will enjoy seeing miniature trains rolling though very detailed scenery, repre sentative of northeastern Pennsylvania, on more than 900 feet of double-tracked mainline, and a 75-foot, single-tracked branch line. Many of the model loco motives feature realistic steam and diesel sounds and are controlled by wireless digital controllers. Visitors will be taken back to the days when coal was king, and the railroads were starting to switch to more modern diesel power while still running steam loco motives. All phases of various types of layout construction are on display. Members of the club will be available during showtimes to discuss the train exhibit and answer questions. The Short Line Model Railroad Club is open to new members. If you are inter ested in joining, ask any member for more infor mation. The club is a great way for model railroad enthusiasts who don’t have their own trains or room for them, to participate in an enjoyable hobby with others.
