We are the Metro North Division of the Northeastern
Region of the National
Model Railroad Association. With more than 100
members in Westchester and Fairfield counties, the
Metro North Division officially meets five times
a year to hear guest speakers, share skills and discuss
common problems and successes. Many of us informally
get together at least once a week in round-robin
sessions to operate and work on each other's layouts
or, as often happens, just to talk railroads and
modeling.
In addition to this Web site, we publish a newsletter
five times a year to keep members informed of division
activities.
The division's makeup cuts across all lines. We have
beginners who have sought and received help from the
round-robin group, we have experts whose work has appeared
in Model
Railroader and other national publications and
we have others for whom a layout remains a dream on
a sheet of paper. Some members (not many but still
a countable number) are more train buffs than modelers.
But beyond specific interests and accomplishments
what we have is a congenial bunch, more inclined to
encourage than criticize, as eager to laugh as they
are to learn. Perhaps we fit your interests and needs.
