Model Railroad Club Proudly Displays Photos

The Central Alabama Model Railroad Club was formed in 1968 and is located in it own building in Prattville, Alabama. Since its inception the model train club and it’s members have been strong supporters of the National Model Railroad Association by supporting the building fund and by hosting Southeastern Regional Conventions in the past.


All trains originating on the Central of Alabama line are determined by a computer program that insures the proper type of car is set-out or picked up at the different industries along the right of way.

There are several trains from other railroads that have traffic rights on the Central of Alabama line and are included in the computer program. All train orders generated by the computer must run in sequence to insure that cars are available when needed or picked up when loaded by the industries served by the Central of Alabama line.


This model train layout operates with extensive use of walk-around throttles from Aristro-Craft, and several fixed location Model Rectifier hand-held throttles are used in areas of the layout.

The Central Alabama Model Railroad Club layout is fully scenic and features an outstanding painted backdrop that is a perfect match to the scenery and was painted by the wife of a former member. The backdrop includes trees lining the roads, casting their shadows across the highways and byways.
