Hello to all!
I would like to announce the official roll out of the Memphis Model Railroaders website. The website was designed by one our own Casey Jones HI Railers / Casey Jones Chapter TCA member whose profession is IT. He has put a lot of time and effort into the website, and this is only the first version.
We have needed this resource and level of exposure for our local model railroad clubs in the Memphis area for a very long time. Our model railroad clubs consist of Z, N, HO, S, O , and G gauge groups and home layouts.
Each club or group has pages on the website for both public assess and club member only private pages. Links to websites for other model railroad resources are included on the website. Our first links include
OGR
TCA
Memphis Railroad History pages
Memphis Railroad and Trolley Museum
Mid South Hobbies, our one and only full service hobby shop in the Memphis / Shelby county area.
All of the model railroad clubs will have links to web sites for their specific interest groups.
There is also an events calendar. The meet dates for the remaining 2017 Casey Jones Chapter TCA train shows are posted now. Train meets in Nashville, and the tri state area will also be included on our TCA calendar.
We are also planning to have a page dedicated to Louis Ertz and his magnificent West Tennessee Central two rail O scale layout. Although Louis and his railroad are no longer with us it is important that the memories of the West Tennessee Central are captured in photos as part of our website.
Please have a look at our website and share it with your friends. Your comments are welcomed.

I will post updates as the Memphis Model Railroaders website adds more features for servicing the interests of our local model railroad community.
Thanks,
