Trainfest (Milwaukee)
Trainfest is a model railroad show that takes place annually in the Milwaukee suburb West Allis, Wisconsin. According to the show’s organizers, it is “America’s largest operating model railroad show” and markets itself towards both hobbyists and young families.〔(Trainfest )〕
==History==
Trainfest started in 1971 as a one-day show in a Milwaukee Veterans of Foreign Wars hall.〔 Today, Trainfest is a two-day event sponsored by the Wisconsin Southeastern (WISE) division of the National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) and takes over of the Wisconsin Exposition Center during the second weekend of November.〔(Milwaukee Journal Sentinel )〕 Despite a faltering economy, total attendance in 2008 rose to 21,621 from 20,979 in 2007.〔(Model Retailer )〕
Trainfest serves as both a showcase for trends in model railroading and a place where model railroaders can connect to share ideas about their hobby. Trainfest features at least 50 operating layouts from Z to G scale, some constructed by hobbyists and some constructed commercially. Over 60 manufacturers (including industry giants such as Walthers, Athearn, Bachmann Industries, Lionel, Atlas, Kalmbach, Marklin, and MTH Electric Trains) and 50 hobby dealers from across the country showcase their newest products and sample layouts.〔(On Milwaukee )〕
