This year's theme is... Technology
Advancing
the "How-to" for Prototypical Railroad Modeling
Our 2025 theme
addresses the impact of technology on our ever-changing hobby and
how you can use the latest products, services, capabilities and
devices to give you more believable and prototypical results. No
matter what the need, from building models, or creating more
realistic layouts, to running the trains with incredible realism,
our hobby has made and IS making giant leaps forward. We hope to
include topics such as: 3D printing, DDC & Sound, Train Control, as
well as LED lighting. We will help you learn more about the magic of
what is available now and coming your way soon. For the latest information go to
