GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Train lovers of all ages climbed all aboard the 9th annual “First Freeze Train Show and Swap Meet” Sunday.
The family-friendly event featured more than 100 tables packed with trains of all sizes and operating layouts.
Kids could take part in train races, and special door prizes were drawn every hour.
Event organizer Basil Buchko tells FOX 11 there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
“Whatever your imagination can reach, you can do with model trains. You can take the toys, we like to call it weathering, so you can add realism, there’s tons of scenery. If you’re into any sort of modeling, this presents an absolutely excellent opportunity for modeling.”
Kids also got the chance to tell Santa what was on their wish list, as he made a special stop to the train show.
