It's nice to see so many 3 Rail clubs represented here on the forum. Wondered if a member of each club would post the name of their club, what area they represent and website info etc.

I am in two clubs. The National Capital Trackers and a local round robin club the Northern Central Highrailers. The links are in my signature below:
Wish I could say I'm a member of a 3-Rail club, but there aren't any around South Florida, at least when I inquire at the local LHS's. Might have to look to Central Florida to find one and take part occassionally.

I do remember that thread where some folks would like to see a club in Tampa happen. Did the idea just fizzle or...?

You'd think with the large older retired population here there would be more train activity in the state. The reality is events and stores are few and far between and clubs are virtually nonexistent. Florida never really was a "railroad state" either, so maybe that's why.
In any event, it's collector cars that seem to be the major hobby of Florida, and of course boating.

Right, I remember now. The Tampa train show that people wanted to have the meeting at happens on the very same weekend as York, which is the largest and most heavily attended train show in the country. So it would almost be doing a disservice to the potential club that so many potential members would be away at York. I liked the idea about the library though. Guess no one else did...
Rereading that thread though I saw someone mention a club getting started up in Fort Myers. That's only about 30 minutes from me.

It might also be nice to indicate which of the groups are closed to new members. Although it is interesting to see all the neat things that these clubs are doing, it can also be somewhat frustrating not to be able to join in.

Wow! there are more clubs than I thought

My Australian club caters for all scales, but we have a great 3 rail layout, it's 50 years old. The original track and switches are all hand made. Although a new loop is Atlas.
The club is A.M.R.A (Australian Model Railway Association) We have club rooms in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth.
Add to the list another club that started as a Northern New England Club (including Maine) but has members across the USA. WE are The O-Gauge Model Railroad Association and are very active.
