The Twin City Model Railroad Museum participated at the World’s Greatest Hobby Show on November 20th and 21st where it entertained hundreds of future engineers when it unveiled its new transportable Thomas the Tank Engine layout.
The new layout, made by member Matt Winiecki, is now on display at TCMRM’s Toy Train Division joining another Thomas layout that has been a central attraction among the Museum’s many model railroad layouts; together they now more than double the capacity to entertain aspiring Thomas the Tank Engineers.
Both Thomas layouts can be operated by Thomas fans on weekends at the Museum’s Chimneys Building location, so bring your Thomas the Tank Engine fans, young and old, to try their hand at the controls.

What fun pictures! I bet those kids had a blast learning about trains and there history. I miss those field trips, too bad we don’t get any in college.
