The Banning TrainFest and Cajon Division Meet in Southern California will take place this coming weekend, October 11 and 12.

One low $5.00 fee covers admission to all events both days and you do NOT have to be an NMRA member to attend Cajon Division activities. Parking is free.

Festival activities will include over 11,000 square feet of operating modular railroads, a railroad swap meet, hobby clinics, a model contest with displays, a hobo train auction and food vendors.

The bulk of these activities will take place at the Banning Community Center, 789 N. San Gorgonio Avenue. This is six blocks north of the downtown and Interstate 10. This is the venue for the exhibitors and vendors, model clinics, model contest, hobo train auction, bingo for trains and some of the modular railroads.
