Show Layout

The Cincinnati Northern Model Railroad Club has a 10-ft by 17-ft modular Show Layout. Construction started in the spring of 2000. Initial construction took about 3 years. The first irst time it was operational was late 2004. The first major displaying/operating of the layout was at the NMRA National Convention in Cincinnati in 2005. The layout was still in the ā€œfinal touchesā€ construction in 2009 and has been exhibited at many venues, including the 2012 NMRA National Convention in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the 2018 NMRA Mid-Central Region Cincinnati Express convention, and the annual NMRA Cincinnati Train Shows.

The layout received two awards at the 2010 NMRA National Convention in Milwaukee:  the NMRA First Place Award for Modular Layouts and the DPM City Classics Award
