Plarail Expos are events where Tomy showcases new Plarail products with activities and games for children and event-exclusive Plarail available to purchase.
Since 2001 new Plarail releases specifically for sale at Plarail Expos have been produced, with a new train or two available every year and for a few years following. Many of these trains are reissues of trains no longer in the regular range or are decoration or other variants of current releases. Sometimes, event-limited products that are left over are also later sold at Plarail expos.

Plarail Expo events also often have free items given away at the door or available as prizes for activities for children like "Plarail Fishing" where children use toy fishing rods to fish Plarail out of an assortment in a large container of some kind, getting to keep the car they fish out.
