Purpose
The
James River Division’s purpose is to share the fun and excitement of
model railroading with modelers in Central and Southside Virginia. We do
this through our web page, a Member’s Forum on Yahoo Groups, a
quarterly newsletter, Crossties,
and four to six meets per year in locations around the Division. These
meets feature clinics, a white elephant table, model displays and
contests, door prizes, home layout tours and model railroading
fellowship. Clinics are generally how-to modeling subjects, but also
include information on prototype railroading as well. We try to have one
all-layout-tour meet per year. The James River Division makes every
effort to bring the benefits of NMRA membership and model railroading in
general to you on a more local and personal level.
