About Us

From its humble origins in a garage in Paterson in the early 1950s, the Garden State Model Railway Club has established itself as a leader in HO model railroading in the Northeast. The Club’s history of creativity and innovation in building and operating model railroads have been attracting serious hobbyists for decades, as well as the parents and children who throng to its Open Houses.
