Tony's operations-based layout is under construction and is planned to travel from looped staging representing Philadelphia and Baltimore. Train control is handled by the new TCS DCC system, and the signal system is managed by LCC with detection currently in place. About 50% of benchwork and 10% of scenery, including buildings, are completed. Major highlights will include several landmark bridges along the line. When complete it will fill a 2000 square foot space with 3 levels in some areas.

Andreas 3-Rail DCC HO Scale operation depicts a section of German Federal Railroad (DB) Line # 195b from Frankfurt to Limburg in 1968. NCE DCC controlled locomotives re-geared and re-powered by Micromo or Maxon coreless DC motors and on-board energy storage.  Layout fully signaled and signals interlocked with turnouts.

First State Model Railroad Club, founded in 1985, has 2 HO layouts on display. Featured is the state of Delaware from State Road to Delmar, the other is a generic FreeMo design. After spending many years in Dover, they moved to their current location in 2022.

Visitors are encouraged to bring in DC or DCC locomotives that they would like to test run on either of the available layouts.  If you are having programming problems with your DCC equipment, bring it in and they may be able to help you!

The Delmarva Model Railroad Club is celebrating its 40th Anniversary in 2024. There is more than 8,000 sq. ft. of model trains ranging from G-Scale to (new in 2024) T-Scale, which is 3mm gauge. We are located on the 2nd floor of St. Stephen Church’s Camelot Hall and access is by stairs only.  The church’s youth group will be providing snacks, drinks and lunch.
