Thanks for continuing to follow us as we list clubs in all of the states for model railroad enthusiasts. The goal of this and all of the previous posts on clubs for those who love to collect Lionel trains as well as all of the numerous other types of train sets that can be found in the market. Here is the latest list of clubs:
Vermont
North Western Vermont Model Railroad Association - The NWV was formed on January 1, 2008 by model railroaders with the purpose and goal of preserving and teaching the art and craft of model railroading. For 30 years various groups of modelers have been meeting and creating a model railroad empire in Colchester and then Essex Junction.
Virginia
Piedmont Railroaders - The Piedmont Railroaders was founded In Warrenton, Virginia in February 1995 as an organization for railroad enthusiasts of all ages, and to provide a place where the members could share their individual interests in railroading.
St. Albans Chesapeake and Ohio Modelers - The St. Albans Chesapeake and Ohio Modelers Inc. is an organization made up of people who want to share the rich history of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad in the St. Albans, West Virginia area using scale models. Our members enjoy modeling the C & O, as well as Chessie System, CSX and other railroads connected with the C & O.
Northern Virginia Model Railroaders - The NVMR is a HO scale model railroad layout that is on permanent display at the Vienna station. The club models a small railroad, the Western North Carolina, set in the 1950's. The club hosts open houses, 10 times a year, where the public is welcome to come and see trains running. Admission is free but donations are always appreciated.
Washington
United Northwest Model Railroad Club - The United Northwest Model Railroad Club is a Seattle, WA-based non-profit, 100% volunteer group that seeks to better our community and promote the hobby of model railroading. The layout is N scale (1:160). An N scale locomotive would have to be magnified 160 times to equal the real thing.
Tri-City Model Railroaders - In addition to a permanent club layout, and a portable modular layout, club members have layouts from N to Garden, many with completed scenery.
Pacific Northwest Division of the Toy Train Operating Society - The club is a diverse organization of toy train collectors and operators in Oregon and Washington who meet regularly to share our knowledge, foster friendships, and-of course-run our trains. Though most members concentrate on "O" gauge trains, many members collect several different gauges.
Puget Sound Model Railroad Engineers - PSMRE is a non-profit club, whose charter is to build, maintain and operate a world-class HO (1:87) model, featuring highlights of the Tacoma area during the 1950's. This is a 1700 sq. ft. model railroad exhibit and club layout, and mainline construction is complete.
Mt Rainier N-Scale - Mount Rainier N-Scale is an N-Trak Modular model railroad club, with a history going back to the early 1990s. The members model many roads, but the general theme of the layout is the railroads and beautiful scenery of western Washington State, where they live.
The next post on model railroad clubs will cover West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming. It will also be the final post in this series on clubs for model railroad enthusiasts in all of the states in the country.
