  • For almost four decades, the Treasure Coast Model Railroad Club and Historical Society, Inc. have been bringing the fun and historical perspective of model railroading to the Treasure Coast. In 1975 three model railroaders in Vero Beach determined that there was interest in forming a Model Railroad Club. The Club thus had its beginning with this nucleus of interested hobbyists. The Treasure Coast Model Railroad Club declared itself as an actual organization on September 2, 1975.
    The railroad is modeled during the transition era between steam and diesel power of US railroads, which occurred between the 1940's to the 1970's. It is HO scale (1:87), utilizing a Digitrax DCC control system.
    Layout has two major freight yards, 2 city passenger stations, several industrial complexes, a freight harbor, steel mill and a coal mine. In addition, there are three cities, several towns, lakes, mountains and a desert.
    Many of the structures are lit as are signs, street lights, railroad crossings, and even vehicular traffic lights!

    This is the one of the best model rail roads. The attention to detail and design aspects are amazing. The dam is cool and all the tiny detail, like the guy in the kayak in the water. Very cool. The car-with the family-camper on the hill. The industrial area, the track detail, with the color of the dirt. Even the moss on the rocks. So much attention to detail. Outstanding.

    It is great to see the club still operational. I was in the club from 1980 to 1993 and built the clubhouse layouts and clubhouse at the old fairgrounds in Ft Pierce. Obviously the firehouse was a great opportunity to get a home long term. Layout looks great.

    Fascinating. Not my hobby but fun to watch. Outsider question; in this and other like videos I always see single engine trains. In real life the majority are2, 3 or more power units in tandem. Why not with HO models? Do the engines have slightly different speeds that are not easily synced? Love of railroads came from growing up with a grandfather, born in 1890 who worked on the C, B & Q and the D & R-G in Colorado and Wyoming in the very early 1900's. I have an incredible photo of him and his work mate standing on their repair car, It had a small shed on one end for living. He talked about spending weeks in that shed stranded out on the Wyoming Prairie during an extended blizzard. When I was a boy he would drive me to the nearest rail station to watch the trains go by. Great memories.

    A very well built layout, one of the best I ever saw! Yet I am not sure if these tracks in green kept green so long, I just don't know. Your freight trains could have been 50% longer, it would have made them more realistic just as at the one leaving at 14.49! I do miss more signals on this layout, it would have made the layout more realistic too. Absolutely loved the Rock Island locomotive and the number of different cabooses! What I really think you should re-consider is this tramway that not only runs very unrealistic at such a high speed but also refuses to stop anywhere at all even though there are no stops made for it!

    Hello from Romania and thank you. My son loves model railroad videos and was very happy to watch it.
    On a separate note: please ask the camera operator to set a fixed white balance for the shoot. The color balance changes so often in this video, many times within the same shot, that it really is disturbing.

    I must praise the camera man who managed to film all trains so jt was impossible to see if there were any passengers or train crew on board any of these trains. This side of the modelling always lets the side down, so the models may be fantastic, but the realism leaves a lot to be desired. People everywhere except on any of the ghost trains. So not nearly as good as you thought you were eh? From a retired train driver.
