The exhibit opens for the season this weekend and runs through January.Robert Perin, a train master who helps maintain the display, said his interest in trains began early.“The love of trains. I first saw a steam engine when I was four years old,” Perin said.Before visitors arrive, Perin and other team members spend hours preparing the trains. Their work includes lubricating train cars, cleaning dirt and dust, maintaining track and repairing locomotives, freight cars and scenery.“We probably put in a couple of hundred hours, you know, and each person has their own niche as to what they’re good at doing,” Perin said.Cody Heffner, spokesperson for the Cincinnati Museum Center, said Union Terminal is a fitting place for the holiday display.“What better place than a former train station to bring these?” Heffner said. “And so it’s been added to our holiday experience ever since. So now this is 15 years here.”Heffner said the holiday experience is expected to draw 100,000 or more visitors over the season.Perin said the trains appeal to visitors of all ages.“It’s not always the youngsters. Older people too. They just love it,” Perin said. “And you know, we like sharing it with them.”</div></body>
