We had a wonderful time operating on member Roy Masterson’s layout in Chattanooga this weekend, even though one of us derailed a coal train! As we wait to begin the construction of our own model railroad at ScaleTrains, we’ll be scheduling monthly operating sessions with local modelers like Roy, who also happens to be an NMRA member.
Become a Vol State Railway member today so you can partake in these fun op sessions this spring. 🚂

Our first official club gathering begins at 3PM. We look forward to seeing everyone who RSVP'd and are excited to watch trains together. Please, follow the signs for parking as there will not be enough room for everyone to park at Ed's house. Don't forget a coat, either!
Join us on Saturday, November 6th for fun, food, and fellowship at Ed Painter's "Railfan Spot" in Cohutta, Georgia. See Ed's house on Google Maps: https://goo.gl/maps/GsbKhpob5Q2gRn2R9
The event begins at 3PM Eastern at Ed Painter's house (address: 5265 Red Clay Road Cohutta, GA) where attendees can watch trains on Norfolk Southern's H Line and I Lines throughout the afternoon and evening. Delay In Block Productions will be there to host a YouTube livestream in an effort to raise awareness and funds for the model railroad club. During the event, attendees may also tour Ed's HO Scale layout and run their own model trains.
In the evening, when it's too dark to photograph trains, we will have a campfire and cookout featuring delicious Wisconsin-style bratwurst. We encourage attendees to bring a side dish (chips, dips, cottage cheese, potato salad, etc.), their drink of choice (alcohol is permitted), and a camping chair to sit on by the fire.
This event is open to everyone, not just club members. If you are considering membership, we will have applications available for you to fill out and our official project vision packet so that you can learn more about our efforts to bring a modern HO Scale railroad club to northern Georgia.
Celebrity guests include:
James Wright (jlwii2000 on YouTube)
Mike Cyr (Virtual Railfan)
Ed Painter (our host)
