HO Scale

HO scale is one of the most popular scale, partially due to it's size.  "HO" stands for half O, meaning it is half the size of O scale.  HO scale is a great size to work with and can be as simple or complex as you want.  The Club currently has two HO layouts.  A 4'x'8 (currently in need of repair) and a modular traveling layout.  Our Modular layout has three main lines.  Most clubs either have their layouts all DC, or all DCC.  Our layout allows operation of both.  Any mainline can be switched between DC or DCC, allowing our members to run anything that they want to.  If your someone new to the hobby/club and don't have trains and still want to run trains we have a collection of club trains that anyone can run.  The modular layout is usually shown at the fair and some train shows and the 4'x'8 is typically taken to smaller shows.  There are also a few HO modules in storage from the display in the Industrial Arts Building layout.
