The auction is a live, in-person event held on the main stage at Endres Manufacturing.Co.’s Wauktoberfest Celebration; a fitting end to the Wisconsin themed project. Many train artists will be present for you to meet and to see their creations auctioned off. Starting bids for all trains will begin at $200.00, with proceeds benefitting two local programs: the Endres Manufacturing Co. Foundation and the Waunakee Creative Economy Initiative.
