Train show season in Ontario, Canada (2018-2019)

Sure, summer is here in a big way. But it really won't be very long before the weather cools down.

And that means train show season.


If you are in Ontario, check out Charles Cooper's Railway Pages for a list of shows for the coming season (September 2018 through February 2019).

Oh, and if you can't wait there's a show Saturday July 21 and Sunday July 22 at the Long Sault Arena (Cornwall area).
