Exhibitor Information

Layout Exhibitor Information

   Thank you for considering bringing your operating layout or static train display to the Rocky Mountain Toy Train Show at the Mart. The Rocky Mountain Division of the Train Collectors Association (RMD-TCA) is sponsoring the first Rocky Mountain Toy Train Show (RMTTS) to be held at the Denver Merchandise Mart, November 28th and 29th, 2009. The RMTTS is an all scales train show planned to be a regional destination event promoting the toy and scale train hobbies.

   Our organization has sponsored a Holiday train show in the Denver area for the last 32 years. RMD-TCA is a non-profit Corporation that has members in the states of Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska and Montana, and our previous shows have had many attendees from New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada and California. For 2009, we have contracted for a 65,000 square foot space at the Mart, which is conveniently located at I-25 and 58th Avenue in Denver. Approximately one half of that space will be devoted to operating layouts and other non-selling exhibits. We have designed the show to promote the toy train hobby to the public by featuring many activities to bring families with young children in the door. Among these activities are approximately 20 operating train layouts, manufacturers’ displays, how-to clinics, presentations by tourist railroads and museums throughout the region, door prize drawings and many fun things to do in our Kids Corner.
