Greater St. Louis Metro Area Train Show 2025

When our club first formed almost 20 years ago, we were primarily a LEGO train club that exclusively displayed at model train events.  We’ve since branched out, but every once in awhile it’s nice to get back to our roots and do train-exclusive events.  We’re excited to be returning to the Greater St. Louis Metro Area Train Show for the third straight year at the Meramec Community College Gym in Kirkwood.  Our train-crazy members always love to bring out their engines, rolling stock and other railroad goodies, all made of LEGO parts.

See the Mississippi Valley N Scalers website for complete details.  Adult admission is $10 at the door, and kids 12 and under are free!
