Greenberg’s Great Train & Toy Show rolled into the Monroeville Convention Center on Nov. 4 and 5.

At least 1,000 locomotive enthusiasts and their families attended the two-day event.

Show manager Neal Carnaby said there were between 300 and 400 vendor tables and a similar layout to previous shows.

There were several active train displays. Two of the most popular were made by Iron City N-Scale Modelers and Pittsburgh Independent Hi-Railers.

Patrick Burns of North Huntingdon brought his son, Mason, 4, to the show Nov. 4.

Burns said they both love trains, are fans of Thomas the Tank Engine and had a lot of fun at the convention center.

There were numerous trains for sale, and pieces ranged from $5 to more than $1,000.

Other items included Hot Wheels cars, stuffed animals, other collectibles and tools to customize train sets.

The train and toy show stops in Monroeville three times a year. Its returns to the convention center Jan. 6 and 7.
