We're trying something new this year. Since it's a long time between shows, we're having an Open House called "End of School Model Railroad Open House" next month for three hours. It's free and should be a fun time to just run trains, without any other diversions. Come and enjoy the trains in air-conditioned luxury! 😊🚂 (Thanks to David Galbraith for this, what I hope will be, great idea.)

We are open every Saturday from 12pm to 4pm. 1175 W Shore Rd, Warwick RI 02889, layout is located on the upper level. Admission is free, donations are always welcomed.

It’s April, 1969 and a short PC work train makes its way through New Haven on its way to South Station via Providence. The snow has melted and spring is in the air as the crew enjoys a mild day.
