It’s a cold snowy Sunday out there, but it’s always Sunny & 70 on our HO scale Water Level Route/Auburn Road layout, so bundle up and pay us a visit. We will be at the Station this afternoon working on the layout and operating trains, and guests are always welcome!Bruce fires up a High-Nose Norfolk & Western SD40-2 outside the Goodman Yard engine facility during last Sunday’s Club meeting.
A message from the Rochester Model Railroad Club:Our 2021 Annual Open House has been Rescheduled for October.
Usually during March, the club hosts our annual open house. However due to the restrictions due to COVID, we've postponed it until October hoping things will be more relaxed by then and enough of the population can be vaccinated. Come and see our 350-foot double track mainline depicting scenes of the Lehigh Valley Railroad of the 1960s with a trolley line with cars running under overhead wire. Come see as many as ten trains running simultaneously, including Thomas or one of his friends for the little ones! We also have refreshments and a model railroad equipment sale on Saturday only.
Next Show Dates:
Saturday, October 2nd from 10a- 5p & Sunday, October 3rd from 1p-5p
