The annual Rocky Mountain Train Show is returning April 2nd and 3rd, 2022.
This year it will be held at the National Western Stock Show Complex.
A much bigger and more convenient location than in past years.
For those of you not familiar with the Rocky Mountain Train Show this is the LARGEST model train and hobby show west of the Mississippi River. There are literally hundreds of different and fun model train sets on display.
Scouting has always been a strong participant of this show, thanks to a dedicated team of Scouter train enthusiasts.
They have for years offered the Railroading Merit Badge and involved may of the various presenters at the show to participate.
The Merit Badge will be offered again this year thanks to Steve Dee’s and his Merit Badge team.
The show also supports Scouting by allowing any Scout in uniform free entry and Scouting families receive a discounted entry fee. They also ask for Scout Volunteers to assist in set-up, take-down and running some of the activities like the Tomas the Tank Engine ride. Again, this year the show organizers are also providing Scouting with an information booth, which I will be looking for volunteers to staff. We have had a lot of fun doing this in the past.
