All Points North Model Railroad Association will bring their circus-themed model train display to the museum January 6–9, 2026! This vibrant and whimsical layout features a Ferris wheel, carousel, roller coaster, moving parade, and an animated big top tent—complete with hundreds of miniature people enjoying the sights and sounds of the carnival.

Recently showcased at the Austin Model Train Show, this intricate display promises to captivate children and families alike. Young visitors can watch the tiny trains chug through colorful carnival scenes, spot hidden surprises among the crowd, and marvel at the attention to detail that brings this miniature world to life. 
Model railroad features a moving parade, Ferris wheel, carousel, roller coaster, and animated big top tent with over 300 people enjoying the carnival atmosphere.  A small locomotive “kiddie train” pulls a custom-made set of passenger cars through the carnival, adding to the delight of the old-time traveling circus.  Special side benches and lighting allow children to enjoy the display from all angles.
Included in the price of admission, which is $9 for adults and children 1 year and older.
