Washington - Boeing Employee Model RR Club
Kent, WA - BEMRRC is dedicated to the notion that model railroading is fun. Our 24' X 36' layout
room is located in the Kent Activity Center, 22649 83rd Avenue South, Kent, WA. The
main layout is HO scale and our railroad is the fictitious Seattle and North Cascades
Railway, a bridge route connecting the Pacific Northwest to the Midwest. We also
have an HO scale and an O scale set of modules that we operate at local shows, swap
meets and open houses.

Win-N-Trak
Win-N-trak Model Railway Group is a non-profit organization, whose aim is to enjoy and promote the hobby of model railroading in "N" scale (1/1 60) through the use of the international modular layout concept developed by "N-Trak".
The N-Trak concept employs standard track locations in order to allow modules built by members to be joined together to create layouts of various sizes and shapes.
A "standard" module is four feet long by two feet wide, and with the standard track locations, it is modeled with a miniature scene done to the owner-members taste.
Win-N-Trak owns several of the key components, such as the "yard", power sources, and throttles. The yard is an important part of each setup as it allows members to put together and store their trains between runs on the layout.
The layouts used at shows take from one to two hours to assemble, including the matching and connecting of the modules, the electrical components, and the cleaning and testing of the completed setup. Teardown, at the end of each show, takes up to one hour.
Except for December, we meet on the third Monday of every month from September to April at the Western Canadian Aviation Museum, 958 Ferry Road, in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
The club has a modular layout at Gooch's Bicycle and HObby Shop at 185 Sherbrooke Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba, which is open to the public only when members are present during store hours.
