Michigan Train Shows - The Number 1 Internet Listing Since 1998!
We try to make sure the information on this page is as up to date and accurate as possible but you should verify all dates, times and locations before attending the shows listed. It is not uncommon for shows to be canceled or moved.
If you know of any shows that are not listed here please let us know so we can update the list with your information.
Also, if you are going to a show and wouldn't mind helping us out, we have a flyer in Adobe PDF format you can download and print. Dropping a few flyers off at the shows flyer tables will help us raise the awareness of this listing, the shows listed here and their attendance. Higher attendance makes better shows, draws in more dealers, creates better product offerings and is all around more enjoyable. Shows with higher attendance also attract more clubs with running layouts. And as you know, running layouts are very enjoyable to see and offer excellent ways to share ideas.
Thanks for stopping by,
Jon Foster.
Note: Oldest shows are at the top of
the list. Newest / future shows are at the bottom.
