Visit the Cumberland Valley Model Railroad Club

In 1996 a small group of railroad enthusiasts recognized the need for a club in the Chambersburg area, thus in April of that year the Cumberland Valley Model Railroad Club was founded. The club derived its name from the Cumberland Valley Railroad. The Cumberland Valley Railroad’s headquarters, which was located in Chambersburg served the Cumberland Valley from 1836 to 1919, when it became part of the Pennsylvania Railroad.

Visit the Frederick County Society of Model Engineers (FCSME)

The FCSME’s Catoctin Central Railroad operating exhibit is a 56’ HO scale layout housed inside a 70’, 6-door Chesapeake and Ohio horse express car. The layout is a mythical short line that crosses Frederick County, traversing the Catoctin Mountains where it connects with the HOn3 scale Catoctin Mountain Lines. Two HO scale loops laid out in an overlapping dog-bone shape span the majority of the club car’s interior and include a centrally placed yard with a turntable. The HOn3 portion, located inside and over one end of the main-track loops, is a short branch consisting of a point-to-point switch-back with a dual gauge yard. Motive power and most of the rolling stock is from member’s private collections and include a mix of steam and diesel of various eras and road names. The layout is controlled with Digitrax DCC. Using JMRI (Java Model Railroad Interface), members are able to use mobile device applications to control train movements across the layout. Many areas of the layout are currently being improved and are under construction.

The club was founded in 1966. The 6-door horse express car was purchased in 1972. Through the generosity of the Young family the car was provided a safe home for decades in the City of Frederick. It was transported by truck to Walkersville in 2022 under the direction of the WSRR. The Young’s continued benevolence has recently afforded the club the opportunity to have a fresh coat of paint applied to the full exterior. This historic car is maintained in the late C&O tri-color paint scheme and reapplication of lettering will take place soon.

The club car and layout are usually open to the general public, monthly, on first and last Saturdays in conjunction with WSRR operating schedules. For future dates and times refer to the club Facebook page <https://www.facebook.com/FCSMEtrains/>.
