It is known throughout the Bay Area and exhibits at regional parks\, museums\, train hobby shows\, and community events. It is one of the oldest and largest modular large-scale clubs in the world. \n\nLarge layouts are low enough for small children to see and be close to the action.\nSee a variety of scenic themes with great detail and animation.\nTrains represent late 19th-century steam locomotives up to 21st-century diesel-powered engines.\nFreight and passenger trains.\nDiscover the importance of railroads and railroad history.\nLearn from knowledgeable hobbyists in woodworking\, electrical\, and scenic construction techniques.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Display dates: Saturday April 4 – Sunday April 12 \nThe Golden Gate Lionel Railroad Club is a group of train enthusiasts that operate three rail O-scale and classic trains on a 20 ft. by 35 ft. hi rail modular layout with three loops of track. \nThis is the fourth layout they have built since their founding in 1986 by Gerry Bretshneider in San Francisco. It is now one of five Lionel Railroad Clubs in the U.S. The layout is never finished as their many creative members are continually detailing several areas. Look closely!! \nFor more information about the club\, please see their website at www.gglrrc.org. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n AsiaNRail\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Display dates: Wednesday April 8 – Sunday April 12 \nExplore exotic\, colorful Asia by rail. Follow trains through scenes of rural rice terraces and waterfalls\, ancient mountain temples\, and enchanting villages. This layout presents 1/150 Asian N scale models of historic steam and modern diesel and electric trains from Japan\, Taiwan\, China\, Korea\, Thailand\, Russia and other Asian countries. The setting of the layout features traditional Asian architecture and scenery displayed with informative descriptions of each scene to help viewers learn more about the diverse cultures of Asia as they follow the trains around the layout. First displayed in 2008\, the layout has been shown at several local shows\, including the annual Train Days exhibition at the Los Altos History Museum\, and at several regional and national conventions of the National Model Railroad Association. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Display dates: Wednesday April 8 – Sunday April 12 \nPeninsula NTRAK is an N-scale model railway club founded in 1991 on the San Francisco peninsula. The club is known for the high standard of quality and detail that its members achieve. Peninsula NTRAK modules are built to international NTRAK standards\, allowing the modules to be joined by others worldwide. The club has participated in numerous local shows each year\, and many members have taken their modules to conventions up and down the West Coast\, including the national conventions of the National Model Railroad Association in Sacramento in 2011 and in Portland\, Oregon\, in August 2015. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Exploiting the advantages of N scale\, which is just 1/160 the size of real trains\, the layout can run the long trains that represent North American mainline railroading in the U.S.\, Canada and Mexico – with occasional visits by trains from other parts of the world\, including high speed bullet trains\, Caltrain and even Thomas\, The Tank Engine!

There are many meter gauge lines in Switzerland run by private companies such as Rhaetische Bahn (RhB)\, Furka Oberalp (FO)\, Brig Visp Zermatt (BVZ)\, Montreux Oberland Bernois (MOB)\, and Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB). We run models of the famous Glacier Express and Bernina Express trains\, as well as local passenger trains and freight trains from all these companies. \nIn addition to the pleasant Swiss scenery our modules\, we have two particularly attractive areas\, a model of the Chamby station on the MOB line\, and a stone arch viaduct that goes into a tunnel reminiscent of the Landwasser Viaduct on the RhB network. We run single track mainlines with sidings in stations\, and we also incorporate elevation changes in our track\, with one module that has the track cross over itself as it loops around. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Display dates: Saturday April 4 – Tuesday April 7 \nThe Golden Gate American Flyer Club comprises members who enjoy collecting and operating S Gauge trains\, which were popularized by the A.C. Gilbert Company starting in 1946.   We are also interested in other A.C. Gilbert products including HO trains and Erector sets as well as S Gauge trains by other manufacturers. Lionel produced trains under the American Flyer name\, but has recently limited production.   Other current and former manufacturers include American Models\, S-Helper Service\, MTH\, and Scale Trains. \nWe meet twice monthly\, once by Zoom for the benefit of members who live in outlying areas of California and the West\, and once in person at the home of a Bay Area member.  At the in person meetings\, we enjoy running trains on the host’s layout\, buying\, selling and swapping trains\, sharing repair tips\, and showing off our latest acquisitions. \nWe also have a modular layout which we display at various trains shows and it will be on display at this event. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Get your tickets\n \n \n \n \n \n This Event is included with museum admission.\nMuseum Members are Free.
