Model train collectors, hobbyists and enthusiasts are invited to the annual Model Train Show at the Packard Proving Grounds Historic Site. New for 2026, the show moves into the newly renovated Tank Building and Repair Garage, providing more space for vendors and, for the first time, a model train display.

Browse vendor tables, search for additions to your collection, discover hard-to-find pieces and connect with others who share an interest in the hobby. The new display also makes this year’s show a great opportunity to introduce younger visitors to the world of model trains.

Saturday, November 28 | 10 a.m.–3 p.m.

Admission is $5. Children 11 and under are free with paid adult admission.

Expanded programming hours every 4th saturday with a focus on family-friendly activities and fun

Changes over the course of the nineteenth century in how Americans voted, from voice vote to public ballot box to private voting booth, also saw changes in the material culture that surrounded voting. Ballots and ballot boxes, campaign pins and ribbons, blank lists and pre-printed party tickets, lanterns and banners–the creative forces of the American print industry filled the country’s cities and small towns with the ephemera of electioneering.

As you look at the items in this exhibit, think about what they tell us about how Americans in the past felt about voting, and about how voting felt. How did Election Days feel when they were full of parades and music and public drinking? What was it like to vote when everyone around you knew who you voted for? And, most of all, who counted as a voter, and who did the counting?

On view September 11-December 22, weekdays from 12-4 pm.
