We did our first complete layout setup and track wiring and it ALL WORKED. Yes there was a single short circuit (quickly fixed) and there were a few tweaks for smooth running but there were no major problems. We’re ready and confident for Supertrain. The learning curve for our microprocessor-based switch control continues. We so now have a working demo board (it will be at Supertrain), & are hopeful of getting the Canal mimic panel operational soon. See more on the New Layout and Construction pages.

WE ARE a club of dedicated Railway Modellers interested in mainly British Railways. We are located in Calgary Alberta Canada. We’ve been together in one form or another since the mid 70’s, first as the Calgary Chapter of the BRMNA (British Railway Modelers of North America), then since 1993 as the CBRM, although still affiliated with the BRMNA. In 2021 we incorporated as a a No-Profit Society to formalize our operations. We are the ‘go to’ group in southern Alberta modelling British Prototypes in: N, OO,OO-9, and O scales. We currently have our large layout ‘Much Muddling” in storage. Our newer Branchline layout has been shown regularly at Supertrain in April, & at Heritage Park Railway Days in September. We are currently building a new exhibition layout. We host a regular “Social Night” on the last Tuesday evening of each month at a friendly pub, and is open to anyone interested in railways, modelling, or seeing what the fuss is all about.
