Train show rolls onto fairgrounds
By Angelia Huntley
Staff writer
The fanatic-like attention for the
Comhuskers’ rout of Washington on
Saturday was not powerful enough to
derail the Great American Train Show
in Lincoln.
Train whistles and children’s laugh
ter and the sight of model trains filled
the Arts and Agricultural Building in
State Fair Park over the weekend as
Lincoln played host to America’s largest
touring model train show.
“The show is about promoting
model trains, the history of trains and
real trains,” said Randy Bachman, man
ager of the show.
Starting in the early 1980s as a
model railroad chib inViliapark, 111., the
train show now travels throughout the
United States and to Canada.
The national show was co-spon
sored by the Teen Association of Model
Railroaders and the Lincoln-area Model
Railroad Chib. This is the third consecu
tive year the show has come to Lincoln.
John Blomenberg, a banker from
Seward, had one of the most detailed
models at the show. He originally got
into collecting as a hobby to share with
his son and now shares ownership of a
semi-permanent model town built on a
flatbed trailer. Some of the buildings are
handmade, and the scenes depicted
even include model people.
“The model represents Nebraska
from the west all the way to Omaha,”
Blomenbeig said
The show had many booths scat
tered throughout the two buildings.
Some sold model trains and train parts,
for prices ranging hum $5 to $350.
But Bachman said the show was not
only for the avid collector but for those
with a dabbling interest as well.
In addition to the show’s working
models, there also were trains for chil
dren to play with.
Bachman said he started collecting
model trains when he was young and
would like to introduce that passion to
today’s youths.
“Surveys have shown the hobby age
is getting older,” Bachman said. “We
would like to keep it alive.”
