Model Railroad Club of Solivita
Our club promotes model railroading in our community by providing a way to collectively enjoy our hobby. Our goal is to build our clubs layouts and assit our members with their personal layouts in all guages by gaining knowledge through our clubs expertise and connections with other local clubs. The Model Railroad Club of Solivita encourages you to take a look at our young club as an outlet to build on a hobby that has many rewards and a good deal of potential. We have been in the process of impoving our clubs permanent HO layout during a series of project days. Members have been learning skills that help us create layouts that have a realistic life like look.
HO Guage Permanent Layout
Besides our permanent HO layout our club is building a moduar layout to participate in Solivita special events. Our club has reserved the Ceramics Gallery third Thursday for our monthly club business meeting starting at 2:15 pm. The clubs modular layout sections are lightweight and portable allowing us to set up our modular layout quickly and effieciently. We meet at 131 Vista Drive (home of our permanent display), on the first, second and fourth Thursday starting at 9am to lunch time. Our club is considered an arts and crafts group which centers arround, landscaping, woodworking, electronics and track design talents which combined gives our clubs layouts a life like realism. Whatever you interest may be we have a way for you to pursue our hobby at your skill level.
