If
you’re interested in model trains, Pacific
Crossings Model Railroad Club extends a warm welcome.
Located in the Salem, Oregon area, our members have
an interest in Garden Railroads and all other scales.
Meet other model craftsmen. Learn and share new ideas
at our ‘How
To’ workshops.
Incorporated
in 2003. our club was founded for the purpose
of helping each other build the best model railroad
possible, and to promote the hobby of model railroading.
Supporting each other is just the start. We also
know that our hobby can sometimes be expensive.
To this end, Pacific Crossings has compiled a
library of web sites and other resources that help
keep costs to a minimum. If would like to attend
our next meeting or need more information about
our club, please contact
us. We invite your participation.
