A holiday-themed model train show opens Saturday, Dec. 16, at the Klamath County Museum, 1451 Main Street.

The Klamath Rails model railroad club will have a variety of train layouts set up for the show, including N, O, HO and G-scale model sets.

The show runs through Dec. 30, with hours the same as the museum’s normal schedule, which is 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday each week.

Entry to the train show is free with regular paid admission to the museum. Admission fees are $5 for adults, and $4 for seniors, military and students. Youth 12 and under are free.

Santa Claus will be available to visit with children attending the train show from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day through Dec. 23.

A free session for families with special needs children will be provided from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 17.

“We’re pleased to have the model railroaders back for another great show this year,” said museum manager Todd Kepple. “Their layout continues to improve, and the variety of equipment they have makes for an interesting presentation.”
