Welcome to our club showcase. Our purpose is to help promote both our club's efforts and model railroading in general. The club's main focus is to help educate, not only from our members' knowledge of model railroading but also for the public's safety at railroad crossings and on railroad right-of-way areas through our involvement in Operation Lifesaver. We are a 501c(3) organization so donations are tax-deductible. Most members come from the Lewiston-Auburn area, but everyone is welcome to join.
  
Club meetings are the third Thursday of the month at our club building at 144 Mill Street, Auburn, Maine. Visitors are welcome. Renovations on the club building continue on Wednesday evenings starting at 5:00 p.m. and Saturday mornings at 9:00.
Next club meeting: Thursday, March 18, 7:00 p.m.
