- Stimulating interest and providing education in both model railroading and full size railroading
- Promoting N-scale
- Providing an organization where members can learn needed skill from fellow members
- Setting up N-Trak layouts at train shows and other public event(s) (and running model trains on these layouts).
NNJ N-Trak usually does at least six public displays a year. We meet weekly to conduct organizational business, work on modules, run trains on the modular layout we have set up, and talk and exchange ideas about shows and hobby tips. Members also have access to our growing library of videos, magazines, and other N-Trak organization's newsletters.
Members are not required to build a module; only to have an interest in the hobby and a willingness to participate with the organization. All skills are welcome and needed to keep our organization operating smoothly.
NNJ N-Trak has recently expanded to include "T-TRAK" modules.
Our "home-base" is located in the Paterson Museum - the former Rogers Locomotive Erecting Shops. The Thomas Rogers Building/Paterson Museum is located at 2 Market Street in Paterson , N.J
Annual dues are currently $30.00 per year (that's only $2.50 per month!) for general members. Junior and Associate memberships are also available for $15.00 per year.
