Wagon Masters Railroad

We are a model railroad club located in Elmhurst Illinois and our Open Houses are on the first Friday every month from October - May.

The Wagon Masters Railroad Club was founded in 1980, by a group of railroad enthusiasts who were interested in creating a layout and an atmosphere of sights and sounds that would showcase classic equipment, and was originally designed with passenger service in mind.

Even though equipment, technology, and even the railroads themselves have changed over the years, Wagon Masters still believes in keeping the past alive through vintage passenger trains and steam service, as well as bringing back a not too distant past, where mergers happened only once in a while, and the caboose was still the best part of a freight train.

Roads modeled by club members span the entire North American continent. Stop by and take a trip down memory lane, as we present class
