N-Scale Train Resources - Places To Find Information On N-Scale Railroads
There are many good resources to search for information on all aspects of of N-scale model trains. Their wide popularity has generated many clubs, websites, and national and international organizations.
One of the largest sources of information for model railroad enthusiasts is the National Model Railroad Association website at NMRA.org. This organization will be celebrating it's 75th anniversary next year. They are a nonprofit group whose purpose is to promote and encourage the craft of model railroading. They are a Very Large organization with 17 regions across the U.S. and around the world. They have regular conventions where railroad fans can gather and share their information and enthusiasm with other railroaders. The website has links to everything imaginable for the this great hobby. There are links for manufacturers, model layouts, software, electronics, clubs, hobby shops, memorabilia, history of railroading, tourist sites, and even the current railroad industry. It really is a one stop shop and a must for anyone interested in model railroading!
Another great resource is RailServe. This website was started in 1996 as a source of information for rail travel. It has grown dramatically and has thousands of links in more than 150 categories covering 130 countries with content to everything railroad related including both model railroads and actual railroads. It has received many awards and has been mentioned in just about every railroad publication. You could spend many hours looking through the information on this site. It is another site that you must add to your list of information for model railroading as well as regular railroading, not to mention other railroad connected information. (Think Rails-to-Trails)
Besides your local hobby shop, there are many forums, tourist sites, historical societies and museums dedicated to railroading. Many hobbyists like to make sure they are historically accurate in the depictions of the railroads and displays they use in their models. So, they regularly make use of museums, tourist sites and history books to find detailed information on the time period in history they are modeling. If you get in to this area of interest, the sources of historical information are practically limitless.
Another source that is often overlooked are friends, relatives and local organizations that may have members associated with railroading. Remember, railroading was once a much bigger industry than it is right now and many people, especially seniors, once worked in the railroad industry or knew someone who did. These folks often have many memories and items of interest that can be a great source of information in your search for authenticity and knowledge.
There are many other sources of information too numerous to list for N-scale trains. Just use your imagination and the ideas from this article to explore the huge encyclopedia available.
