Spring Meets and Club Fun Days are around the corner

It’s that time of year again—when the railroads across the region shake off the winter quiet and come alive for another season of club fun days, run days, and meets. The smell of steam, the sound of compressors, and the sight of friends gathering trackside can only mean one thing: the 2026 live steam season is officially underway.

This year, we have a full lineup of events both at home and at neighboring clubs. Whether you’re a seasoned engineer, a new member eager to learn, or someone who simply enjoys being part of the community, there’s a place for you at every meet. These gatherings are the heart of the hobby—where stories are shared, locomotives are admired, and friendships grow stronger with every lap around the track.

Below you’ll find a list of dates for upcoming fun days and meets. Let’s show up big in 2026—not just at our home railroad, but in support of the other clubs and railroads that make this hobby so special. Your presence matters, and every event becomes richer when more of us are there.

If you have any questions about these dates, travel details, expectations, or anything else related to the season, please reach out to Robby. He’s happy to help make sure everyone feels informed and included.

Here’s to a great year on the rails—see you at the track.

Don’t forget about some of the workdays planned over the next few weeks as we prepare the railroad to open a little earlier this year with our first public run day at the end of March.
