I hope you have been able to use the information on this site to help in building your own model railroad. If you have found the site useful to you, please consider making a contribution to the site in one of the following ways...


1 - Write a short article (2 or 3 paragraphs) about your experience with model railroading - anything that you think might be interesting to other model railroaders - an educational tip, a railroad station you have visited, a humorous story or a challenge that you have faced and solved.

2 - Send me a photo or photos of rail yards or trains, your layout, your benchwork, or even a map or track-plan of your layout.

3 - Showcase your layout or module or even a great scene that you've modeled that could be listed in the "Showcase" section of this site. All you need is to send 1 or 2 photos along with 1 or 2 paragraphs telling us about your layout or scene. All of us modelers would really enjoy seeing what you've accomplished.

MRMHR

This unique Model Railroad Museum was established in November of 2024 as a non-profit community organization featuring ten operating model railroads in all the different major scales, a STEM Program for students, historical displays, group tours and clinics on how to develop your skills as a model railroader. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Open 12-6 pm on all Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through April, 2026. They will be moving to a new location after that. Will provide an update later this year.

Update: Aug. 2. 2026. Unfortunately, the MacArthur Center where our Museum was located has closed and we have been forced to evacuate our space there. Until we can find a more suitable place, we are temporarily located in a small office/store at 750 Lord Dunmore Dr., Unit #109, Virginia Beach, VA 23464. Our multiple layouts have been dismantled and are in storage nearby. The good news is that we have many items that are available for sale at greatly discounted prices. Our hours of operation are 2pm to 5pm, every Mon, Weds, Fri, and Sat except major holidays.The proceeds will be used to create a new and better museum once we have found the right location.
