Welcome to our Web site!
| We are the Upstate Model Railroaders. The club is located in the basement of Aimie's Dinner and a Movie located at 190 Glen Street in downtown Glens Falls NY. Please go to
the front door and use the door to the basement on the
right as you enter. There will be a sign in the window when the club is in session. All are invited. Learn more about the
building and operation of a model railroad. Club activities include: Monthly business meetings,
monthly open houses, weekly operating sessions every Wednesday evening from 7-10 PM, an annual railroad show
in December, and field trips. You don't need to be talented in any area of model railroading since part of the club's purpose and function is to provide instruction in various modeling
techniques.

Right of Way
An exhausted group of club members arrived home late last night and early this morning. We spent the weekend at the Springfield train show in MA. We displayed our two club modules and ran our trains as part of the Northeast Ntrak layout. In between we toured the four show buildings, talked to manufacturers, and shopped for MORE TRAINS!
