Night Trains
Coming Soon!
Night Trains season is a special holiday tradition at the Twin City Model Railroad Museum beginning Saturday, November 5, 2016 and running every Saturday evening from 6:00 to 9:00 pm through the last Saturday in February (February 25, 2017).

Night Trains season comes to the dozens of model railroad layouts in a magical way, the lights are turned down, the buildings and street lights glow warmly, setting the scene for specially lighted models of vintage passenger trains. The make believe town of Matlin is buried in a blizzard, and throughout the Museum the layouts are adorned with miniature Christmas lights and decorations.

This year Santa will be visiting the Museum on Saturday, December 17th. He will have a sack of goodies for good girls and boys. Bring your camera and tell Santa about the train you want for Christmas. There’s no additional admission to see Santa!

Night Trains takes place at the museum’s new location at 668 Transfer Road, Suite 8 in Saint Paul, Minnesota.  Directions to the Twin City Model Railroad Museum can be found here: http://www.tcmrm.org/location-hours/exhibits-events/night-trains/ 

Admission to this special show is $15.00 per person and FREE for children age four and under. Discounted group rates are available for groups of three or more (max 10).

Help us build a world class museum facility!


Since 1934, the Twin City Model Railroad Museum has been dedicated to educating and informing the public about both the history and benefits of model and toy railroading as well as the history and importance of railroading to the development of the Twin City area itself through multiple interactive layouts and displays.


Last year the museum faced its most difficult year ever, a move from our longtime home and subsequent rebuilding in a new location has been an expensive undertaking. Now reopen, the museum is seeing growing revenue and good reviews for the new space - But - we have a lot of work to do to develop this new space into a world class museum. We are working diligently with museum planning organizations to design a 

one-of-a-kind toy train museum! 


Your contributions will go towards the matching funds for a Minnesota Legacy Funds application this winter.  These funds will go directly to the construction and installation of hands-on, interactive train layouts, interpretive information and other public use amenities that will focus on the history of model trains, toy train collection and the connection to the real railroads that have shaped the Twin Cities!
