Garden Railroading Across The West |
Combining large scale model railroading with the beauty of gardening. |
NNGRS is a fun group of Garden Railroaders and the families that tolerate them. Check out the site and consider coming out and support this exciting and fulfilling hobby. |
The Society puts out a Newsletter with information about what's going on in the area, meeting notes, layout visits, and anything else of interest to members. |
Here is a great link to some of the best and most versatile layouts around. Our member layouts range from the beginner and novice to the extremely complex and accomplished modeller. |
From time to time members have various items for sale or trade. Grab something for your layout and hobby here. We also feature information on local hobbyists who can model that unique, gotta have item for you. |
The hobby of garden railroading has been around a long time, although it is fairly new to the U.S. Over the last thirty years interest continues to grow. NNGRS provides an outlet and social network for large scale railroaders to share, learn, and socialize. |
Large Scale Garden railroads are weather-resistant model trains designed to be run outside |
Regular Events |
Meetings are generally held the third Sunday of the month at a member host's home. Topics and activities vary widely. Programs generally cover some topic of interest to the hobbyist. Operating sessions and support for community education events are offered during the year and announced in the 'Order Board,' the society's newsletter. |
