The Kishwaukee Valley & Eakin Creek Sun City Model Railroad Club’s holiday train display runs through Dec. 28. Running times in general are from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends, though some days may see extended hours depending on the lodge’s other activities. In a release, the club said it is again sponsoring a drawing for three Lionel trains, with this year’s model being a Lionel O Gauge Canadian Pacific Passenger train. The drawing is scheduled for Dec. 23 at 3 p.m.
