This Web Page is to provide an Index of Model Railroad Hobby sites in Alaska , and to the Model Railroading in Alaska Newsletter. This is all about Model Railroading in Alaska, from Z scale to the big, outside scales, even 1 to 1 scale (preservation). It is not limited to modeling the Alaska Railroad, but includes any Alaska modeler's subject or road, whether it be Alaska, BN, ATSF or UP. While most of the information supplied is from clubs, I would also encourage groups and individuals to participate. This is intended to be a free exchange of information about Model Railroading in Alaska. The companion, Model Railroading in Alaska Newsletter is up-loaded on or around the middle of each month. The material presented in this Web site and Newsletter may be freely reprinted, but all original rights are maintained by the Web Master/Editor, Marty Quaas.
I would like to invite any and all the Model Railroad Clubs, Groups and Individuals in Alaska to participate in this Web Page and Newsletter.
If you have an event which you would like to have included in the What's Happening in Alaska section, please submit the information to the Web Master ready to upload.
