The Model Train Hobby is one of the most challenging and exciting hobbies. When first introduced to model trains as youngsters we played for endless hours around a small circular or oval track with our train operating at a high rate of speed. As adults most of us totally dropped the hobby with the exception of setting up a train set for our children during the holidays. This website is dedicated to those of you who have developed a renewed interest in the hobby later in life.
