Greetings all, There is a wonderful Model RR Club in Stamford CT, USA that has an awsome 'O' Gauge layout. It's located in the basement of a church right in the downtown area of the city. It's been going since 1939. They open it to the general public once a year. This past Saturday was this year's opening. Here are some of the pictures I took. From their own description: "features an amazing display of over 6,000 feet of trackage, 13 railroad stations, 11 railroad yards and 1,700 railroad engines and rolling stock".
