Modular Layout
This drawing is a representation of our club's modular layout.. Our layout has appeared at many professional and community
shows in Virginia and Maryland since 1995.
Each member may choose, if they wish
to construct one (or more) 2 foot by 4 foot section(s) . The design and
scenery are left up to the member as long as the PWMRC Module Standards are followed. Our club
members model prototypical areas including Manassas, VA; Bristow, VA; Remington,
VA; Harpers Ferry, WV; and Clifton, VA.
Others model free-lanced
areas such as large canyons, valleys, bridges and highway accidents.
We have modules with animated effects such as a smoking brush fire, arc welder
and an operating crossing with working lights. Members spend many enjoyable hours
putting together modules that they proudly display at our public shows.
Our layout is controlled by the Digitrax® digital
command control system. We operate over 3 scale miles of mainline
trackage with multiple trains running in different directions. A
large 8 track staging yard sits within the main layout to assemble and
disassemble trains out of the public's view. The layout also has
several large industries that provide the opportunity for switching and
placing of rail cars.
PWMRC is a 501(c) (7) Non-Profit Organization
