Wilroy Baptist Church will host a model train expo March 15 as a way to introduce new folks to the church, said event organizer Bob Langer.

“When I came to Wilroy Baptist Church about a year ago, I thought it might be a good way to introduce our church to our neighbors,” said Langer, a member of the local division of the National Model Railroad Association.

The expo will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Langer said he contacted friends in the model train community, securing displays from Tidewater Big Train Operators, The Tidewater Modular Railroad Club, and The South Hampton Roads N-TRAK Club.
