The Trains at NorthPark benefiting the Ronald McDonald House of Dallas


NorthPark Center

The Trains at NorthPark, benefiting Ronald McDonald House of Dallas (RMHD), and presented by Bank of Texas, has been a NorthPark Center tradition for 20 years. The most elaborate miniature toy trains exhibit in Texas, The Trains at NorthPark features trains rolling across 1,800 feet of track on a journey across America.

Cityscapes include New York City’s Time Square and Grand Central Station, The White House, New England’s fall foliage, the Grand Canyon, Route 66, San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, Albuquerque’s hot air balloons and, of course, Dallas’ Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, The State Fair of Texas, The Cotton Bowl, Nasher Sculpture Center, The Perot Museum and Southern Methodist University.

The exhibit encompasses train-themed environments with all the trimmings of the holiday train travel experience — steam engines, coach cars, a ticket booth and a train station. Each year, more than 80,000 people visit The Trains at NorthPark as a part of their holiday tradition.
