MER - NMRA

Conventions

    Each year the Mid-Eastern Region, which the Philadelphia Division is part of, holds one or two regional conventions hosted by one of the divisions in the region.  These conventions feature clinics, rail fan trips, prototype tours, layouts, a train show, non-rail events, door prizes, the company store, and a banquet.  For more information about these conventions, click on the links below.

    Also, once a year, the National Model Railroad Association holds it's National Convention.  The location of these conventions rotates across the country from the east cost, to the middle of the country, to the west coast, and then back again.  This gives you the opportunity to see prototype railroads and model railroads from different parts of the country.  Sometimes, outside the United States too. Like the regional conventions, but on a larger scale, the national conventions feature clinics, rail fan trips, prototype tours, layouts (many of which have been featured in Model Railroader Magazine), the National Train Show, non-rail events, and a banquet.  For more information about the upcoming national conventions, click on the links below.
