About the Mainline Model Railroaders Fellowship

Who We Are

The Mainline Model Railroaders Fellowship (MMRF) was founded in 1997 with two goals in mind: to bring an annual train show back to Edmonton, Alberta, and to unite independent and club model railroaders for special events. Today our membership spans beginner to expert modelers and covers all scales — from the smallest to the largest.

Mission Statement

To promote and increase the enjoyment of model railroading, and all that it encompasses, among fellow model railroaders and railway enthusiasts. It is our goal to showcase the hobby to newcomers and encourage participation in what can be described as one of the most rewarding hobbies available today. We are committed to ensuring that model railroading continues to grow and prosper so it can be enjoyed by present and future generations.

What We Do

Over the years the MMRF has organized many events in support of the hobby, most notably the highly successful Greater Edmonton Train Show (GETS). We have also organized bus tours to other train shows around the region. Future plans include layout tours, how-to clinics, slide shows, and swap meets — all designed to bring the model railroading community closer together.
