Who lives in the trenton area

bigdog;

I recommend you look into the NJ Highrailers.

You are just over an hour away and it's a world class group and layout.

 

Website: HiRailers

 

I too would like to get a club going in my area (NH Seacoast) but had no luck. So I joined the Maine 3 Railers.

It might seem like a ride, but NJ Hirailers is about 1hr up. I drive at least that to get there. As do a lot of other members. Well worth the trip. Don't know if you have been there or not. If this interests contact me or one of the other members to come check it out.  .

Bigdogjeff1,

 

I live in the area, do 3 rail and am interested.

What is your contact info?

Gp for the NJ HiRailers, Great group, See Ben Fioriello

The NJ hirailers is a great club with a huge permanent layout run by nice folks but if Patterson is too far of a drive for you and if you want a conventional O gauge modular RR club in Central Jersey (closer to you), the Raritan Valley Hi-Railers are a short drive.

As for myself, I run a one man O gauge model railroad called the Hill Lines in my basement in Neshanic. Its not a club but you are welcome to see it.

Thanks for all the replys I know all about the hi railers they are little far for me. But I thought it would be real cool to start something like that in this area to build a big layout and to do this with a group of people in the area. Maybe to make the awareness of o gauge trains to younger people to help keep this great hobby alive. There are so many vacancy buildings that could make a great meet place for people and there kids to just have some fun running trains. It's not that I want to go and join a club it's more I would like to do some good in my area community.

There is a Group of O scale Three rail guys who set up for a month in the old town hall at Bordentown NJ around Christmas time. Bordentown is not too far from Trenton. You could probably hook up with those guys.

Yea I live down road from that but very limited to just Christmas would like to do year round

The Ocean County Society of Model Railroaders   www.ocsmr.com  is located in Lakewood, N. J. We have both O gauge and HO gauge layouts in the basement of a church where we've been for almost 25 years. Bern a member for almost 15 years. Great club!!

My daughter lives and teaches in Hamilton and is close to the Jersey valley ho club there.

I live near Trenton, Michigan so I was getting ready to answer.  Oh well . . . .
