    Dozens of model trains and sets are in place around the building, representing local spots like Jim Thorpe and Waverly.

    “We call it Christmas in July. So we get to open for the public to see more of what we do here,” said Anthracite Model Railroad Society President Jim Hoegg.

    The society says events like these help keep the lights on and the trains on the track.
