The Great Falls Model Railroad Club of Auburn is holding its annual “ExTRAINaganza” at 144 Mill Street in Auburn on the weekends before and after Thanksgiving. The handicapped-accessible club house across from the Barker Mill in New Auburn will be decorated as a Winter Wonderland with trains of various sizes operating on five permanent layouts throughout the two-story building. ExTRAINaganza will be held from 10 to 4 on Saturday November 23; Sunday November 24; Friday November 29; Saturday November 30; and Sunday December 1.
The club’s extensive HO layout downstairs is an engineering marvel. Members continue to develop new and expanded details. Long-time residents of the area will recognize many of the 1950’s scenes reproduced in the Lewiston Lower section of the layout including Bates Mill #5 and the former Portland Union Station. Children can sign up to be “Guest Engineers” and operate one of the HO trains.
Train-related items can be purchased at the club’s store including locomotives and rolling stock in a variety of scales railroad hats whistles T-shirts locomotive earrings books and other train-themed items.
Admission is by donation suggested as $5 for adults and free for children 12 and under.
