2 Rail-Scale β’ Metro Detroit
I live near two first class 2-Rail Scale Layouts. Detroit Model Railroad Club & Chi-Town Union Station. They both have open houses from October thru April. If you are ever in the area check them out. We also have P&D Hobby Shop that promotes 2-Rail Scale. These are both popular layouts & they use local TV News & News Papers to promote 2-Rail Scale.
The DMRC started in 1935 & in 1975 they purchased the old Holly Theater in downtown Holly, Michigan. They have been building the layout at this location and plan to stay here for many more years. A lot of the members have home layouts. The track is all hand laid & looks great.
Chi-Town is owned by Paul Gribble a retired Ford Motor Executive. Paul got his start with Lionel Trains as a kid and he used to be the President of the DMRC. He owns the building and the building used to be a grocery store. His favorite part of the hobby is running passenger Trains.
Detroit Model RR Club is about a ten mile drive and Chi-Town is about a two mile drive from my train room. Below are two videos from my YT Channel.
