N Gauge Model Railways
TOY Model Trains – A Wide Ranging Hobby
The early models of locomotives were made first as an advertising campaign for the early railways that eventually became a “toy”. The significant event in toy train history was first launched by Marklin in 1891 with a complete system of trains. He had introduced a series of standard track gauges, ready to use track sections for those gauges, and a variety of locomotives, rolling stock and accessories to use.
The hobby of toy model trains embraces a huge range. It combines with Model Railways where you build a layout that characterizes a real railway system but using the products or standards of a commercial manufacturer rather than a general modeler’s standard (for example, a German outline layout with Marklin standards) – which in the US is called hi-rail modeling. On the other hand, you can be just a collector which is not keen into running but decided on owning every variation of a particular range or locomotive. A lot of us can be anywhere in between these two.
There will always be a part of us who at one time had owned toy Model Train sets when we were children and are now recreating the dreams we could never have realized when we were small. But we try to encourage younger enthusiasts, and those who want to indulge in train models that have little or no connection with their childhood.
Whatever an individual's interests, toy model train is a wide-ranging hobby. And while most of the membership is male, we do not believe that trains are just a boy's hobby, some girls always did play toy model trains and probably more wanted to. You can now.
