Model Trains Take Over Herndon Municipal Center

HMC served as site for annual Holiday Model Train Show.

The annual Herndon Holiday Model Train Show filled the lobby of the Herndon Municipal Center with miniature landscapes circled by model trains on Saturday and Sunday. Children and children-at-heart enjoyed the display during the weekend, and were able to watch the trains, ask questions of their builders and learn about trains. The exhibit featured HO and N gauge model trains.  Did you miss the display? Check out a gallery of the action in the media player above.
