About this event

The Great Falls Model Railroad Club serves the twin cities of Lewiston and Auburn, Maine. In 2007 the club bought the former Jake and Andy's Donut Shop at 144 Mill Street in Auburn, which is now its clubhouse. It is a 501(c)(3) organization.

The club's Great Falls Railroad is a free-lanced HO scale layout representing a railroad located primarily in Maine. It is not set in a specific time frame and loosely covers the era from the early 1950s to the present, with connections to most actual Maine railroads.

Its ExTRAINaganza Open House is held in November. The club invites visitors to see its model railroads and to be a junior engineer on its HO layout.

What to expect

The club's model railroads are open for viewing, and visitors can be a junior engineer on the HO layout. The club says the building is handicapped accessible.
