We are the Metro North Division of the Northeastern Region of the National Model Railroad Association. With more than 60 members in Westchester and Fairfield counties, the Metro North Division officially meets five times a year to hear guest speakers, share skills and discuss common problems and successes. Many of us informally get together at least once a week in round-robin sessions to operate and work on each other's layouts or, as often happens, just to talk railroads and modeling.

But beyond specific interests and accomplishments what we have is a congenial bunch, more inclined to encourage than criticize, as eager to laugh as they are to learn. Perhaps we fit your interests and needs.

Newsletter

MetroLines is published 5 times a year and is distributed to all division members by e-mail or by the U. S. Postal Service. Yearly subscription is $10 for non-members. Articles or items of interest to the membership,may be set to the editor, Tom Bartley.

The division's makeup cuts across all lines. We have beginners who have sought and received help from the round-robin group, we have experts whose work has appeared in Model Railroader and other national publications and we have others for whom a layout remains a dream on a sheet of paper. Some members (not many but still a countable number) are more train buffs than modeler.
