Great Train Show – Indianapolis 2023

The only coast-to-coast traveling train show, with events each year in dozens of major cities across the country. Each show features hundreds of tables of trains for sale, huge operating displays, activities for kids and more.

2/2/22 – Okay guys, we are just 9 days away till set up for the train show. According to my paperwork, set up times for the layouts is 1:00pm to 6:00pm on Friday and 7:00am to 10:00am on Saturday. We need to try to be there by 12:30pm on Friday to get ourselves measured and ready. Also remember, after I get as many parking passes as possible from the manager on duty, I will take a head count and the club will buy what we need so everyone there on Friday that will be coming back Saturday and or Sunday, especially Sunday will have a parking pass. Tear down is at 4:00pm on Sunday at the close of the show. Please let me know when and what days you can make to the show. Once again, I want to thank all of you for helping to keep this modular layout going. I want to give a special thanks to Geoff Schwartz for being able and willing to help me get the trailers to the fairgrounds. I am bringing trailer #1 from Avon and Geoff is bringing trailer #2 from Marshalls there in McCordsville so we will have the full layout. Thanks, James H. Driesbach–MGC

I appreciate all of your hard work and dedication to keep this layout going. Thanks, James H. Driesbach–MGC
