The MWMRR club hosts this fun and educational annual event to raise funds to maintain the new operating 3-rail O-gauge layout at the Muncie Children’s Museum and add new locomotives and train cars on the museum’s layout. These are trains seen on today’s railroads in and around Muncie and throughout Indiana and represent important transportation and logistical careers.
