The National Model Railroad Association is a world wide organization divided into Regions and Divisions, much like real railways are. The International Division (ID) is a division of the Niagara Frontier Region.

The division spans the border so Meets alternate in the U. S. and Canada. See "Meets" for upcoming Division Meets.
Locations move around the division to give everyone a chance for a "close to home" meet during the season. Boundaries of the International Division are:

New York State: Erie and Niagara Counties.

Ontario: Niagara County, and those parts of Hamilton-Wentworth, Brant, Haldimand-Norfolk and Wellington Counties east of a line from Peacock Point to Rockwood and south of Highway 6.

Our aim is to promote the hobby of model railroading and the NMRA. We accomplish this by means of monthly meets with instructional clinics, prototype and layout tours, and by emphasizing the Fun in model railroading.

To better understand what our members would like to see from their division, we have created a small survey.  Please take the time to fill it out and send it to our secretary.  Thanks

Meets are gatherings at which you can find assistance with all phases of model railroading. Experienced modellers present "how to" clinics on many model and prototype subjects.

For upcoming Meets and railroad related events, see our "Upcoming Meets" page.

Admission to our meets is $5 for non-members, $3 for members and half price of the above if you bring a model for display.

The Cinder Cruncher is the newsletter of the International Division. It is published 5 times per year and is mailed to members every two months to keep you informed of happenings in the division. You'll also find articles and photos from previous meets and details of coming meets. Membership includes a subscription to the Cinder Cruncher.
