- We were off to the 2022 Intermountain Train Show. This year in Layton Utah! The NMRA train show is Utah's oldest train show.
Originally the show was held at the Utah State Fair Grounds. Now called The Fair Park. For years though it has been moving around while staying on the Wasatch Front, the greater Salt Lake City metro area.
As always this was a fun show!!
One of the most EXCITING tables was the Golden Spike Model Railroad Club. Another very old Utah tradition. Originally they were also at the Utah State Fair Grounds but with renovations, they were forced to move. They started over in the basement of the Wasatch Warm Springs pool. The railroad was actually UNDER the pool. The pool had been closed for years but was reopened as the Children's Museum and the railroad was part of that. Well... the Children's Museum moved to a better space but well... the layout needed to stay right there under the old pool. This worked out well however until....
The earthquake in 2020. The old building was badly damaged and the club was locked out. Eventually, they were allowed back in to rescue trains and a few things, but once more needed to start over. They now have a new space in an art space downtown! And we are invited to take a look!
