Reviews
"Stopped in for the open house to view the Christmas Train Display. It was great to see some trains running and to get a peek at the room where the Muskegon based HO Scale model railroad is being constructed. Thank you Terry and others for the hospitality."
"This is a place where you can bring kids and kids at Heart to see model trains come and enjoy the model trains. Good time with family."
"The club had to move a few years ago to a new location and they have spent a lot of time getting it ready to start building new train layouts. It's a big building and will be fascinating to watch it all come together."
"This is a great place. They are currently proceeding with a complete re-model. Thus, there are NO train layouts running. They anticipate having the O gauge running about Christmas time."
"The new building is coming along fast. There will be 3 layouts in the popular scales of O, HO and N, with HO occupying the large 50 x 40 space. An extensive library of photos, maps, videos and books related to the Railroad Industry and local Muskegon railroad history. Definitely worth a visit, or better yet, join the club for a small yearly fee. Going to be a very impressive example of model railroading."
