Imagine RIT Approaching...
April 26th, 2012
Join the RIT Model Railroad Club
Saturday May 5th, 2012 beginning at 10am as we open our doors and welcome visitors for Imagine RIT! Our club room is located on the RIT campus in the Student Alumni Union (SAU) room A420. We will have our Rochester & Irondequoit Terminal ("R&IT") HO-scale model railroad in operation for public viewing. We also will have several club members on staff to answer questions pertaining to the hobby of model railroading or railroading in general. Our layout has been a work in progress since 1996 when the club was founded.
For more information about Imagine RIT, visit www.rit.edu/imagine. We will be open May 5th from 10am to 4pm. A reminder our email is

Genesee Route" May 5th!
More information pertaining to Tiger Tracks 2012 will be coming soon, but the dates have been scheduled for December 8th and 9th!
Operating Session
April 17th, 2012
Recently the RIT Model Railroad club held an operating session with new members of the club! For those who are unfamiliar, an operating session is where we operate our layout in a prototypical fashion, "simulating" a real day on the railroad. We hope our new members enjoyed themselves and got accustomed to what it's like to bring these HO-scale trains to life! We hope to have more of these in the future! We would like to invite everyone to our club room on Saturday May 5th as we take part in Imagine RIT! Check back soon for more details, and visit www.rit.edu/Imagine !
Spring Quarter Is Here!
March 11th, 2012
It seems as if it was just yesterday that September welcomed a new academic year at RIT, but it is quickly passing by. This week marks the beginning of the spring quarter here at RIT, and 10 more weeks of class! We hope everyone is as excited as we are about spring and class approaching. Just a reminder our phone number is 585-475-2227 and our e-mail is info@ritmrc.org for any questions or conversations you might want to have about HO-scale modeling and or railroading in general. You can usually find us down in the club room most Tuesday evenings, so feel free to drop by for a visit. Don't forget our Tiger Tracks Train Show 2012 is December 8th and 9th!!
