Dan: 30 years ago I lived there and enjoyed seeing the "0" gauge club (Milwaukee Union Terminal or MUT) on the south side of town. It was built in a former Milw Rd commuter station under the RR bridge on National Ave. At that time, most of the members were up in age and I really don't know if they have continued the RR. At that time it was supposed to be the oldest Model RR club in the USA, having been started in about 1935. Before WWII it was outside 3rd rail, "o" gauge scale, but in the late 40's it was all redone to accommodate two rail operation. I'd be interested in knowing just what has happened to that layout and bunch of guys. The layout itself was huge and went through several rooms of the old station facility. I also remember being in the building when a train would pass overhead, shaking the whole place and making a lot of noise.
