We Were the Original Social Media for Railfans
First held in Sacramento, Cal., in 1978, Winterail is the original railroad photography exposition and railroadiana show & sale. Created by Dave Stanley, producer of the show from 1978 to 1993, we are proud to have pioneered the concept of multimedia slide presentations by the hobby's best photographers. In 1979, the show moved to its longtime home in Stockton, Cal. (with two detours to Modesto), and in 2016 we moved to our new home in beautiful Corvallis, Oregon.
Produced by Vic & Annie Neves and our awesome team of roadies, including the multi-talented Evan Werkema (Associate Producer), every Winterail features an outstanding lineup of digital presentations from top rail photographers, plus a quality railroad collectibles show for the discerning rail fan. Don't miss the fun!
Winterail's Hall of Fame Recipients
For their outstanding contribution to the rail fan community and dedication to railroad photography.
This award was created by Ken Meeker, Vic Neves and Brian Rutherford to recognize certain individuals that have also supported Winterail. All of the above have produced at least one presentation since the beginning in 1978, except for two individuals: Joseph Strapac and Tom Savio. These two have attended every Winterail (39 years) as vendors to the 'Railroadiana Show & Sale.'
