    The National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) is the largest organization devoted to the development, promotion, and enjoyment of the hobby of model railroading. The NMRA was founded in 1935 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in order to provide a service to the hobby of model railroading.

    The Niagara Frontier Region (NFR) is one of 17 regions of the NMRA. The NFR has members on both sides of the Canada/United States border. In Canada the region serves the Province of Ontario (Except the area west of Thunder Bay). In the United States the NFR serves parts of Western New York State and a strip of Pennsylvania (from Erie, PA north along the New York State Border). The Region is further divided into 8 divisions to better serve the local membership.

    Reminder

    Reminder
    Photo
    Once again we are calling for photographs for the 2011 Canadian NMRA (Canada) calendar.
    Here is your opportunity to share your excellent modelling work with your peers. Best of all, the calendar will be a Canadian calendar.
    The subject should be a model or layout, shot at the highest resolution that the camera can do, evenly lit and in sharp focus. JPEG format is preferred. Each submission should be on a separate email and should contain a short caption along with the model details and the photographer's credit.
    Please submit your work to canrailcal@live.ca
    I know there are a lot of very excellent modellers in Canada and we should showcase our work.
    The Calendar production crew.
    Deadline for submission of photographs is 31 August 2010.

    WHAT'S NEW Getting Started in Model Railroading

    The NMRA has developed the "Introduction To Model Railroading" to introduce people to model railroading. Our goal is to help those who are interested in building a model railroad but who have never done it before or to assist those who may have a simple track plan and now want to learn more.

    NOTE: We support all aspects of Model railroading and in doing so some events may NOT be sponsored by the NMRA.
