We are an NMRA 100% Club
The Mid-Mon Valley Model RR Club (MMVMRRC) is a National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) 100% club. This means that all MMV members are NMRA members and are also members of the Keystone Division of the Mid Continent Region based on their home address. We currently have no members who reside outside of the Keystone Division (all of the counties of southwestern Pennsylvania plus some bordering couties in Ohio and West Virginia). You can find information about activities of the Keystone Division from its website and monthly newsletter by clicking here.
