The LGB Model Railroad Club of Chicago is an association of people who wish to promote the hobby of large scale model railroading. We are particularly interested in trains manufactured by Marklin that are commonly referred to as LGB trains.

Our purpose is to provide education and information to it's members and the general public regarding large scale model railroading.

LGB Model Railroad Club of Chicago garden railroading is fun for the entire family... It combines many interests including model railroading, kit-bashing, gardening, Bonzai pruning, pond construction and maintenance and many other of our member's interests. One of the best ways of learning about large-scale indoor and outdoor (garden) railroading is through sharing of experience and knowledge with other enthusiasts. The LGB Model Railroad Club of Chicago is dedicated to that sharing process.
