The HUB
Modular Railroad Group displays its HO modular
railroad frequently at several shows and events
locally and sometimes further out. These include the
Amherst Show in Springfield, MA, the HUB Fall
Show in Marlborough, HUB sponsored Northeastern
Region Conventions, the National Heritage Museum in Lexington at Christmas time
in December, the
Children's Hospital in Boston, and more.
Membership in the NMRA automatically qualifies you
as a HUB member and as a member of the Modular
Railroad Group.
The individual modules are 2' x 4' in size and
are built to HUB/NMRA specifications. The layout is
a double track main line with an inside yard and an
outside yard for train assembly. The trains can run
on regular DC power or Digital Command Control using
the Lenz System.

hardware, including track and electrical components.
