MVNS Meetings and Events...
The club brings its N-Trak modules to several regional train shows each year, including our own show at the Kirkwood Community Center on the second weekend of October. This past year, we have been in Arcola and Tuscola, Illinois, Springfield, Illinois, and Collinsville, Illinois. We have been to Louisville, Kentucky twice and plan to be there again in 2008 for the national N scale convention.
Several of our members have nice home layouts, and the club visits them regularly to work on them and run trains. Chris Zygmont is building a state of the art digitally controlled layout in south St. Louis county. Jerry Prott has an N scale empire at his home in Edwardsville, Illinois. Fred Houska has a finished and highly detailed layout in Maryland Heights, Missouri. Glenn Koproske has an N-Tak module rehab facility in Fenton, Missouri. You can see all these exciting layouts in the Photo Gallery at this website. Contact the club for driving directions. We have trips to interesting railroad related facilities as well. We recently visited the Illinois Transit Assembly Corp. passenger car rebuilding facility. We took tours of Micro-Engineering and American Model Builders. These are model railroad manufacturing facilities in the St. Louis metro area. We also get together informally and go on the Gateway Div. NMRA layout tours.
