The Garden State Central Model Railroad Club has been active
since it's beginnings in Long Branch, NJ in 1963. After moving to Asbury
Park in the early '70's, the club began work on it's legendary Garden State
Central HO scale railroad. Ten years ago, the huge layout -- with a 300 foot
mainline which traverses four rooms -- entered a rebuilding stage. While
the project is still very much in project, today's railraod features prototype
scenes modeled after actual places along our route from Scranton, PA to Jersey
City, NJ.
The layout features the huge Bethlehem Steel Mill in Bethlehem, PA -- a fantastic model built almost entirely from scratch! Trains roll past the REA building and the infamous Coney Island Texas Weiners in Scranton, past the well-known blue tank in Allentown and call on the docks of Jersey City complete with it's operating McMyler coal dumper... all in 1:87th scale!
