Rainbow Gardens was the place to be for train enthusiasts on Sunday.

The Erie Model Railroad and Train Show was back in town once again, and plenty of people showed up for this annual event.
 
Anything and everything a train collector could love was all there. Organizer Carl Amidon said he's been putting on this event for 28 years now, and said he sees the attendance grow each year.

"We need to encourage you kinds and younger generations to start getting involved in trains, both real trains and model trains," said Amidon. "It makes a great hobby."

If you missed Sunday's show, it'll be back again this November.
