Getting ready for another school year!


It's hard to believe we're getting ready for another school year... And a new academic calendar based on semesters! We'll be back at school in just a couple of weeks and while we're excited to get back to classes (yeah right), we're also excited to continue work on the layout! This second version of the Rochester & Irondequoit Terminal was started last September and has seen a considerable amount of work accomplished.

We're also getting ready for our annual Tiger Tracks Train Show, our club's primary fundraiser that takes place December 14 and 15. Tiger Tracks is Rochester's largest train show, and it's an event you won't want to miss!

Are you a new or returning student with an interest in trains, electronics, or scale models? You should join our club! We generally meet on Tuesday nights, and we have work sessions on the model railroad on the weekends. Some of us even volunteer "on the real thing" with the Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum just down the road. We're located in Room A420 in the lower level of the Student Alumni Union. We're down the hall from the Ritz Sports Zone! Check out our Facebook page, or leave us a message at 475-2227.
