information on finding train shows?

After searching google and the search function on this website, I have been unable to determine where I can find a list of upcoming train shows so I do not miss them. I have not been able to find a reliable source and it always seems like when I do find one it is “oh that was last weekend.” If it makes any difference, I am looking southeast MI/Detroit area as well as northeast OH/Toledo area. Does anyone have any tricks that I don’t know of for researching the dates of these things? I know I have seen flyers for others at the shows I have visited but I haven’t gone to one in a few months and need my “fix” again :slight_smile:

Thanks

I searched using Google.com for model train shows. Here is one result.

Here is an example. Knowing how to ask the question is the biggest obstacle to successful searches.

Found this by doing a Google for “Michigan Train Shows”. There were a bunch of other hits too.
