Marceline welcomes you!
Families can enjoy their visit to Marceline and not break the family budget.
We look forward to seeing you and enjoying our time together.
The Marceline Train Show is an extension of Marceline’s great railroad heritage. The Santa Fe Railroad built Marceline in 1888, and generations of families worked on the railroad. With so many locals and visitors passionate about trains, large and small, the annual train show is just one way we connect with the community, and those who come to visit Walt Disney’s boyhood hometown.
The train show takes place inside of the Walsworth Community Center, hosting train and toy vendors who love trains as much as we do. We also offer kiddie train rides and giveaways.
Our goal, and hope, is to bring more people to Marceline to experience our wonderful small town, and to share our love to trains – especially since Walt Disney was such a big train fan as well.

Thanks to our wonderful sponsors:
Since 2001, the Walsworth Community Center has been producing this free community event, bringing railroad fans together from around the region and around the State.
This year we’re inviting any railroad club to attend to share your collections or model train layouts. We’d love to have lots of layouts on display for the public. Vendors and community groups are always welcome.
Marceline exists because of the Santa Fe Railroad, so having the Marceline Train Show here honors our connection to one of the great American railroads. Volunteers and sponsors are coming together to make a great weekend of fun for families and rail fans of all ages.
Spread the word – tell your friends near and far – we’ll have model train layouts, train collectibles on sale, community vendors, food, attractions, and lots to see! So bring your cameras, your wallets, and your comfortable shoes, so you can enjoy the annual Marceline Train Show!
All train show proceeds support the Walsworth Community Center

Walsworth Community Center
The Walsworth Community Center encompasses 14,272 square feet. The construction was underwritten by Missouri Department of Economic Development Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) grants. The building opened its doors to the public on September 21, 2001.
In acknowledgement of the ongoing generous donations from the Walsworth family, the Board of Directors of the Marceline Community Building Committee Corporation named the facility the Walsworth Community Center.
Even though the original building was completed in 2001, the all-volunteer Board of Directors has continued its work on behalf of the Center and the community by taking charge of the administration and the management of the building operations.

Steam Engine #2546
This oil-burning steam locomotive #2546 was built in 1911 at the ALCo’s Works in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was known as the Consolidation type 2-8-0 and after 1875 it was the most popular railroad engine type in the country for almost 50 years. It weighs over 100 tons, and the oil tender behind that weighs about the same. The locomotive had a top speed of 40 miles per hour. Not so fast these days, but fast enough in the late 1800s.
