Founded in 1949, the Altoona Association of Model Railroaders has two model train layouts. A 22' x 50' HO/O scale combination layout and a 15' x 30' N scale layout. Visitors will also find a library dating back to the 1800's and a large collection of railroad memorabilia including one of the largest collections of builders' plates in the area.
There is something for every modeler, railfan, and "tag-along" to see!
Members generally meet Friday nights from 7:30PM to 10:30PM.
