The Second Annual Banning TrainFest takes place October 11th and 12th in Banning. Hours are 10:00 to 5:00 Saturday and 10:00 to 4:00 Sunday. The $5.00 admission includes all venues. Children 12 and under are FREE! The admission is good for both days and parking is free.
Festival activities will include over 11,000 square feet of operating modular railroads, a railroad swap meet, hobby clinics, a model contest with displays, and railroad vendor booths. In addition, the Cajon Division/PSR/NMRA will hold a train meet as part of the TrainFest at no additional charge. Train meet activities are open to non-members.
The bulk of these activities will take place at the Banning Community Center, 789 N. San Gorgonio Avenue. This is six blocks north of the downtown and Interstate 10. This is the venue for the exhibitors and vendors, model clinics and some of the modular railroads.
The swap meet runs from 8:00 to 2:00 (Saturday only) adjacent to the Banning School Gym, approximately 560 N. San Gorgonio Avenue. This is one block down the street from the Community Center and is the site of additional modular layout displays.
