Holiday trains are running at Sun City Model Railroad Club

The holiday trains are running through Dec. 28 in the Prairie Lodge's social lounge, 12880 Del Webb Blvd. in Huntley.

In general, running times are 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays, and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays.

On some days, they may have extended hours depending on other activities in the lodge. Note, on Christmas Eve, the trains will run from 10 a.m. until noon when the lodge closes for Christmas. The lodge will be closed on Monday, Christmas Day.

Once again, the club is sponsoring a raffle for three Lionel trains. This year's model will be a Lionel Canadian Pacific O Gauge.

The raffle will be held at 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 23. Winners need not be present. So bring your kids, grandchildren and cameras and spend some time enjoying this holiday tradition.

The Railroad Club is proud to sponsor this holiday event and they invite all Sun City residents, their family and friends, as well as residents of neighboring communities, to this annual tradition. Admission is free but they do ask that all children be accompanied by an adult.

Interested patrons can call the club's message center at (847) 669-2392 to learn more details of the Holiday Display or they can check out the Sun City website at sccah.com.
