SURPRISING STUFF
The 19th Annual Delavan Train Show is coming to town this weekend, March 7th and 8th!
Climb aboard for a full day of railroading fun and step into a miniature world. Explore detailed model train displays chugging through multiple “stops” around historic downtown Delavan. From engine to caboose, it’s the perfect way to spend the day with family and friends. The Delavan Train Show brings detailed model train displays and miniature scenes to locations throughout downtown, inviting visitors to explore at their own pace. The Delavan Train Show will showcase a spectacular array of model train layouts in the main and lower levels of the Delavan American Legion Hall, Delavan’s City Hall, and various businesses throughout Downtown Delavan. With free admission and multiple stops to visit, it’s a great way to spend a relaxed day wandering downtown, popping into local shops, and enjoying a bite to eat along the way. This is the neatest celebration and sales event that Delavan puts on once a year, and if you haven’t gone, you are missing more than you know. It’s just wonderful, and the people putting it on and the people going without charge are wonderful too. Take the kids.
