The Frackville Model Trains display will be OPEN this Sunday from 12-5pm. If there is little or no activity due to the Holiday we reserve the right to close early so please come early. Or call us at 717-799-7441 to confirm we are open. We are located in the Schuylkill Mall Frackville PA at the intersection of State Route 61 and Interstate 81. Easy access. We are located in the former Famous Labels wing. The layout is Hi-Rail "0" gauge with multiple levels and huge at 24' x 55' x over 6' high. We run mainly MTH DCS engines and several at one time. Caleb loves to run L-O-N-G Coal Trains with Multiple lash ups of Diesels or a big Reading T-1 Steamer. always a good show for all.


If your out for a summers drive this Labor Day weekend you can check us out, also close by is the Pioneer Tunnel Coal Mine Tour Ashland PA, and the # 9 Coal Mine Tour Lansford PA. We are also not too far from SteamTown in Scranton, and the Reading Technical Historical Society Museum in Hamburg.

Thanks, Wally, Caleb, Bretz, Mike, Gay, Ashley, and Dave

We had an hour to burn before attending my newphew's youth football game on Sunday so I stopped by to see the North Schuylkill High Railers. What a fantastic job you guys did modeling the coal region! Next time I am up to visit I will surely bring and engine or two to run. Nice talking with you all.

Coal Breakers dot the landscape on this layout. Here is another one being scratch built by Wally's son.

We were there for about an hour. I talked to Wally and his son. Great guys! Since I run both Legacy and DCS I had to give him some grief about not having Legacy on NS High Railers. If I still lived there I would definitly be a member. Hope to get up there again soon.

 

BTW.  I have a Williams Reading passenger set similar to what is on your layout. I am selling it for $100.00 . If any of your members are interested.
