Event Details
Golden Spike Enterprises, Inc. is proud to announce its 58th FLORIDA RAILFAIR AND MODEL TRAIN SHOW AND SALE. This large, two day event will be held this year at the Volusia County Fairgrounds, Deland, Florida in the Tommy Lawrence Show Arena and the Townsend Exhibit Area on Saturday, January 14, 2017 from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm and again on Sunday, January 15, 2017 from 10:00 am to 3:30 pm. This location is conveniently located near I-4, exit 118A.
Over 350 tables representing dealers from all over the nation will have model items in all gauges and Railroad Antiques for sale. This is Florida’s largest combination show, displaying items for both the “modeler” and “rail buff” alike all under one roof. The model railroader may choose from Lionel, American Flyer, LGB, Marklin or Ives Trains from the past or present. The rail buff may focus on dining car china, lanterns, switch locks and keys, calendars, timetables or any other artifacts actually utilized by the railroads. Both collecting interests represent truly unique pieces of Americana.
As an extra feature of this show will be six large working layouts and displays, including a 50’ x 60’ G-Scale (Garden) display for all to enjoy during all show hours. There we also be a ride-on-train for the kids
All attendees will be able to relive the glory days of railroading in Florida when the Seaboard Railroad, Florida East Coast Railway and the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad were king.
