What is the Mid-Atlantic Narrow Gauge Guild? We are a loose-knit group of narrow gauge enthusiasts who reside mostly in the Mid-Atlantic states plus from Maine in the north to the Carolinas in the south. Our extended “Family” includes members from Colorado to Eastern Canada.

Our interests are varied. Many of us are modelers who build in Nn3, HOn3, Sn3, On3, On30, G scale and other scales. Others of us are just interested in preserving the narrow gauge railroads that still exist in the United States. We may collect photographs, movies or videos that were taken of narrow gauge railroads when they were still active or are now tourist railroads. Our favorites are roads like the East Broad Top, the Colorado & Southern, the Rio Grande Southern, the Durango & Silverton, and the Sandy River & Rangeley Lakes. We trace the history of logging railroads like the West Side Lumber Company or the McKelvey Brothers on the E.B.T. If it’s narrow gauge, someone in our group has information about it.

Meetings are held about every two months at various locations around the region. A schedule is produced each year and lists the meetings and their locations. Some meetings are held in members homes where there may be a narrow gauge layout on display. Other meetings, like the annual Module Meet, are held in a rented hall. Modules are set up for a week-end of operations. The schedule also lists the annual Narrow Gauge Convention and the annual Fall Spectacular held at the East Broad Top R.R. in south central Pennsylvania. Train shows, from Maine to Ohio, are also listed.

Membership is open to all those interested in narrow gauge railroading. You need not be a modeler, a photographer or a collector of railroadiana. There are NO dues. There are no officers. Wives and significant others are also welcome. If you feel we might have something to offer you, and you reside within the mid-Atlantic region previously described, fill in the membership form or access the schedule and attend the next meet in your area.
