JSGeare's Model Railroad Clubs Page

About the time I think I actually understand anything about this hobby, I look at a club web site and realize, once again, that I am a complete idiot. But then again, I am inspired to learn and do more, by what I see others have done and are doing.

And you know what else? These people, who give their money, time and talent to their volunteer enterprises, do more to advance this hobby than everyone else. Will I give them web page space? GIVE? More like I OWE them the space. We start with 2 clubs now, and will add all who wish to be present here.

Follow links and see if you are near any of them. If so, inquire about membership. It's gotta be better than hanging around MY website!

The High Desert Modular Model Railroad Club (HDMMRC) One of the folks here told me his club liked some of the material I wrote.

Who am I to argue?

When I checked out their web site, I really WAS impressed - these guys have forgotten more about model railroading then I can ever hope to know.

Golden State Model Railroad Museum. How do they DO this stuff?

N, HO and O scales all represented in exquisite detail! These people are serious. This little snippet from their club history will give you an idea:

"While the Golden State Model Railroad Museum is only 24 years old (2009), the group of people that build and operate the layouts inside it, namely the East Bay Model Engineers Society, is one of the oldest and largest clubs of its kind in the world."

Oldest? Largest? In the world, even? Yup.
