Model trains running during the holiday season represent a century-old tradition in the USA and Canada. And “big trains,” the kind that look best running around the Christmas tree or running through the house or garden, are growing rapidly in popularity.

Some people feel that running model trains at Christmas brings back warm memories. Afterall, it is not uncommon for two or three generations of the family to come together to set up and enjoy the model trains at Christmas time.

The good thing about model trains at Christmas is that its great to see the kids playing with something that doesn’t have a computer or television screen.

Although model trains are fun to run all year round, the festive season is wonderful time to share the fun and joy of model railroading with family and friends.
