All Aboard! The Model train Holiday Exhibit at the Boston Museum of Science

Presented by David “Shack” Haralambou
MOS Chairperson NMRA HUB Division

Shack has been the Chairperson for the HUB Division’s annual (now in their 8th season!) Holiday train exhibit in Boston, MA. The Exhibit runs from just before Thanksgiving and ends on Martin Luther King Day. The HUB division gets about 17 Days to set it up and two days to tear it down each year. During the exhibits run, approximately 150,000 people come through it. join us as we take a quick look at what it takes to make this happen each year.

Shack has been modeling mostly in HO since he was 8 and got his first train around the tree, a Spirit of ’76 Engine, three boxcars, and caboose. He still has that train and yes, it still runs! He is an avid modeler of the Long Island Railroad. Also works with Lionel and G scale at the Holidays.
