Due to the uptick in Covid cases in our area, the Upstate Model Railroaders will be closed to ALL non members until further notice effective 11/5/2020
It is the tradition of the Upstate Model Railroaders to present an award each year to that one member who went above and beyond for the club.
It's called the M.O.W. award for "Maintenance of Way". Traditionally club officers aren't eligible for the M.O.W., however, Mike White, our Sargent of Arms,
went WAY over and above in his endless hours of solo work on the club's HO layout this year. During this pandemic, Mike has single handedly created
almost all of the scenery work, some of which is scratch built by hand.
Mike Romanowski and Ken Wheeler presented Mike White with a Walthers HO scale D&H Jordan Spreader.
Way to go Mike! we love what you have done, keep up the great work!

Welcome
Welcome to the Upstate Model Railroaders Club (UMRR). Starting in the early 1990's UMRR has provided a venue for "the love of trains." Since our beginning we have been located in Argyle, Whitehall, Hudson Falls, Fort Edward and several locations in Glens Falls, NY. We were in our most recent location, the basement in the former Aimie's Dinner and Movie facility (B. B. Fowler Building) at 190 Glens Street, for 11 years becoming an asset to indoor entertainment, tourism and commerce in downtown Glens Falls
As of August 2016 the club moved into three 17- by 40-foot spaces in the Chase Sports Complex/Epic Ventures building at 22 Hudson Falls Road, South Glens Falls. Our space is accessed by driving around the left (south) side of the building and continuing to the area behind the building. Enter through door #25 and follow the signs to the three layout rooms.
Within the 1,700 square feet of our new club space at the Chase Sport's Complex we host six operating railroad layouts in different sizes, namely: Standard-, O-, S-, HO-, N- and Z-gauges as well as Lego™ trains. Club members run trains on our layouts using everything from legacy power and controls to the latest digital command control systems. UMRR Club layouts are unique in that very few model railroad clubs in the U.S. have the space, membership and commitment to build and operate more than one or two different scale layouts.
