HO Scale (1:87)

Model railroading is a great hobby
for a father to share with his children.
"Guests Rick and Nick Breniser visiting the E&W
from Los Angeles California."

The HO division of the E&W was expanded in 1958 as the building was remodeled to accommodate the expanding railroad. Many members bought stock certificates to help pay for the expansion project. Those same members helped in the construction and expansion of the facility over the years. Much of the configuration seen in old club photographs still exists today, as does much of the hand laid track. In the early days of the club the 'pike' was controlled using a block system. Today the entire HO layout is DCC controlled using the DIGI-TRAX system making for easier multi-train operation and cornfield meets which, in many operating circles, are strictly forbidden!
