Our model trains are running again and you’re welcome to come enjoy them as we complete building out the last few displays. Visit with our volunteers and leave inspired by the life-long hobby of model railroading!

What does 8,000 square feet of model trains look like? Come and see Union Station Kansas City’s Model Train Exhibit and find out! From tiny N-scale model trains to the big G-scale giants of the model train world, sample the hobby and enjoy the fun of model railroading.

The Model Train Gallery – visited by over one quarter of a million people annually — is designed, built, and maintained by Union Station Volunteers. Because of these dedicated volunteers, the Model Railroad runs year-round and nearly doubles in size during the Christmas holiday season. Eight different train scales, ranging from the smallest Z-Gauge to the largest G-Gauge, run simultaneously. And more than 80 total trains are running daily to capture the imaginations of model railroaders and casual fans of every age.
