Club Information
 
Description
Founded by and for folks who are currently running or who are thinking about building layouts using any of the various systems that power their trains via the rails their Large Scale Trains run on.

This includes but is not limited to Analog (normal) Track Power; MTS and DCC; DCS and On-Board Controllers that get their power from the tracks.

We do not promote any one track powered system over others preferring to try them all and find out what is best with each system.

Some of us also run battery powered and live steam powered trains occasionally as well as our track powered trains but our primary focus is on track power.

I am retired so I am here most of the time and visitors are always welcome - PRIOR NOTICE IS REQUIRED (phone ahead).
