WelcomeWelcome to CARM, the Canadian Association of Railway Modellers, located in Canada but with members from many areas around the world. CARM is both for Canadians as well as those with interests in Canadian Railways or model railroading or both. Our membership in the organization is open to anyone that wishes to join. Our members area has more content that is only available to members which includes an archive of images that have a Canadian Railway theme in a higher resolution than those available in other areas of this website. Also members have access to all of the newsletters ever printed by CARM as electronic downloads in PDF format. CARM Mini Convention - PostponedCARM Chair Gerald Harper, in consultation with Ian Macleod who was organizing the Montreal Mini Convention, reviewed all of the circumstances surrounding the Mont- real Mini Convention including the high potential for a strike by Canada Post which would disrupt the Registration and Room Booking process. After discussion with a number of Executive Members the decision was made to postpone the Montreal Mini Convention until possibly the Spring of 2017. This delay will give us the opportunity to make sure that this worthwhile event is a success. The Opening Doors Tour |

Hi everyone, click on the flyer below for a PDF version to print. This flyer outlines a CARM Meet to be held on the weekend of March 5th and 6th in conjunction with the Copetown Train Show. It is a little more expensive than our normal meets since there is a dinner involved. Due to the fact that we have committed to the Lions Club for the dinner I would appreciate it if you could give me a heads up if you are planning to attend. You can contact me at johnjohnston@sourcecable.net. I know someone will ask so here is the answer to the question: Can I just attend the Layout Tour? The answer: You are free to attend as much or as little of the Event as you choose, however, since our costs are fixed, the fee is the same. This is the first of a number of Events we are going to try and run this year so I hope you support it. |
