ACTIVE MODEL RAILROAD CLUBS! We want to hear from you. Please post a link to your club's web site or Facebook page, along with a brief description of your activities. I'll start with my favorite model railroad club, please follow a similar format...
The Rochester Institute of Technology Model Railroad, Rochester, New York
The RIT Model Railroad Club (RITMRC) was founded in early 1996 to promote the hobby of model railroading and to preserve the history of Rochester's railroads. We welcome any RIT students who wish to learn more not only about trains, but also building scale models, electronics, scenery effects, software, and more! We meet most Tuesdays at 7:00 p.m. in Room A420 (lower level Student Union across from Tech Crew offices). After providing 15 years of equal parts enjoyment and headache, the old layout was decommissioned on May 20, 2012. Current students and alumni members are working together to build and design a bigger and better version of the Rochester & Irondequoit Terminal. Construction began on October 1, 2012, and has been progressing steadily each week. The new layout starts in Syracuse (staging), and features key scenes in the city of Rochester, and expands to includes towns of Albion and Lockport along the Falls Road Secondary to the industrial side of Niagara Falls before returning to Buffalo (staging).
