Beaver County Model Railroad And Historical Society
416 Sixth Street

More than 18 years ago, a small group of men whose interest centered on model railroading, and railroads in general, gathered to organize a club in which they could share their ideas and pool their talents.

From these early meetings in the jury waiting rooms and vacant courtrooms in the evenings in the Beaver County Court House, and in members homes as well, there emerged the Beaver County Model Railroad Club. But it was not until 1983 before the members' ideas and handiwork could
be set in motion with the construction of an operating display of trains and scenery in the Century National Bank building in Freedom, which was to serve as its quarters for 10 years.

That first effort produced a modular layout that subsequently was publicly displayed one Christmas Holiday season in the Merrick Art Gallery in New Brighton.
