2026 Rock River Valley Train Show

Join us for the 2026 Rock River Valley Train Show!

We have a 42,000 sq. ft. venue at Harlem High School in the Rockford, Illinois area consisting of two adjacent gymnasiums. There will be plenty of new and used model railroad supplies for sale, informative displays and fun to watch operating model trains for children of all ages. Door prizes are awarded every hour, but you must be present to win.

Admission is still only $5.00 for adults with kids 12 and under, scouts in uniform free. Parking is free, too.

Where else can you bring the whole family for just $10.00?

Also check out other Kids events & activities in Machesney Park.
