The first National Train Day is coming up Saturday, May 10th. There are major events scheduled in New York, Washington, Chicago and LA, as well as events across the country ( http://www.nationaltrainday.com/events-information ). The Washington, Virginia and Maryland Garden Railway Society ( www.wvmgrs.org ) will be part of the festivities with a display in the Starlight Lounge of Washington’s Union Station. Get your choo choo on!
