The Santa Barbara Public Library System presents “Holiday Festival of Trains” at the Goleta Library featuring a special three-day holiday display. People of all ages are invited to enjoy a sampling of Dave Halbeisen’s extensive model train collection. Model trains will chug around tracks on a very large table display in the Multipurpose Room on December 13 and 14, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and Sunday, December 15 from 1 to 5 p.m.
This is the 23rd year that Dave, a private collector, shares his collection of trains, small people and animals, miniature-snow covered forests and other scenery for the community to enjoy. Other surprises might include a fire station, snow village and a water tower. There will be at least three miniature trains running.
