Hello,

 

Heard about the train display at 117 Lavaca through Tina Leeper who keeps the Reagan alumni updated on events.

 

Looked online but was unable to find out details about this display as to time of day, any cost involved, parking, etc even though it says it is open to the public.  Did see where November 26^th seems to be one of the dates it would be available for viewing, is this correct?

Hey Barbara/Paul,

We're setup at downtown at 117 Lavaca through Jan 15, 2012, and running trains Saturdays noon-5pm, and Sundays 1pm-5pm.  Admission is free, although we do appreciate donations.  Also, there is a raffle for a train set at 5$ per ticket, and you or you youngster can run one of our trains for 10 minutes for $5.  Parking is free at the city hall parking garage across the street.

Cheers,
