Welcome
The Crescent City Model Railroad Club (CCMRC) is home to one of the largest HO scale layouts in the Gulf South. We are located in Metairie, Louisiana, just outside of New Orleans (aka the Crescent City). We model a fictitious railroad, called the Crescent Lines, whose mainlines carry freight and passengers to and from the beautiful south.
Cowcatcher Magazine features the Crescent City Model Railroad Club in the January/February 2017 issue.
The latest edition of Tim Blackwell's Cowcatcher Magazine for January/February 2017 has a feature story on the CCMRC. You can pick up a copy at Hub Hobby in Metairie.
