Annual NHRHTA Train Show and Convention
Dates: Friday, September 5, through Sunday, September 7, 2025
Venue: Holiday Inn, 35 Governor Winthrop Blvd., New London, Connecticut
Admission: Suggested Donation $5.00

Due to the success of past Reunions, we have outgrown the Valley Railroad and will be moving to the Holiday Inn in New London, Conn. Just a 10-minute walk from regular train service to Union Station, our new venue is more convenient for our vendors, and offers on-site dining as well as lodging. Most importantly, we have plenty of room to offer more New Haven Railroad content—including a return of the popular “Friday Night Bijou” of Reunions past!

Discounted Hotel Rooms Available until August 1

If you’re planning on making a weekend of it, we’ve secured a small number of rooms at the special rate of $209/night (regularly $284). That includes 2 queen beds, so would of course be $104.50 per person if you are willing to share a room. Reserve by calling 1-888-465-4329 and let them know you want the rate for New Haven Railroad (the code is "NRH" if they ask). You can also use this booking link. Go to the "Rate Preference" drop down and use the Group Code: "NRH"

  • If you want to add breakfast for an additional $15, you can do so when you check in.

  • There are only a limited number of rooms available at this rate, so be sure to book early.

  • Deadline - August 1
