NJ Hi-Railers Model Train Club — Attraction in Paterson

This place/club is spectacular. Even if you aren't into model trains, you will be impressed with their layout. I have been here a few times now and every club member is friendly and willing to chat or answer questions. Check out their schedule of open houses list on their web site and make sure you stop in.

The layout is unbelievable - huge and magnificent. The cases of engines and rolling stock is mind boggling. They even have very reasonably priced drinks and food available for purchase during their open houses.

I have so many pictures and video that I took but here is just a...

Absolutely loved this place! Brought back such memories. Beautiful detail to train lines, subway lines, streets, buildings, buses, cars and people living their lives. Amazing. I was there for over 2 hours (didn't even know I was there that long)and still find more and more stuff i didn't see. They had a train room that the younger children could try to run. Also they had good food that didn't hit you over your head prices. Staff was so nice and helpful with stories information details about trains subways historical stuff. Great time. Thanks guys....

A great place for children and adults! Awesome Lionel train layout the length of a warehouse building! Get there soon .. only a few shows left before they close... 😥 Hopefully, they will relocate... have been going there for many years ( 10+ ) and something new or different every time, including the original train layout from the Soprano's - Bobby Bacala' set from his garage !!! Great staff!! Thanks Matt, Randi and everyone else there who put in...
