Digitrax
We're proud to have Digitrax as a supporter!
The Digitrax Complete Train Control® system brings fun and realism to model railroading. Using the LocoNet Network and the many devices that work together on LocoNet, we incorporate many different technologies to deliver a system that handles all aspects of model train operation and layout command control. With Digitrax you can run many trains at the same time just like on the real railroad. You can operate lights and sounds on the trains and at fixed locations around the layout. You can set up detection and signaling so you'll know where your trains are at all times with Digitrax Transponding technology. Transponding also lets you implement train location and identificaion on your layout. Reversing loops can work automatically with autoreversing built in to boosters or with stand alone components. Built in short circuit and power management technology gives you smooth operation with few interruptions. You can use a computer for layout control if you wish but it is not necessary. Set up and programming for all Complete Train Control devices on LocoNet is simple and intuitive.
With Digitrax LocoNet®, the Complete Train Control network, you can start out small with a starter set and build from there until your railroad empire is just what you have always dreamed of! Adding components is simple and it's easy to add new features and expand existing features by simply plugging equipment in to the network. LocoNet is engineered to seamlessly handle high traffic and large numbers of attached devices on every layout, from the smallest to the largest, without the need for additional "bus" wiring for layout command control devices. LocoNet incorporates all aspects of controlling your trains and your layout.
Spring Creek Model Trains
I, David Zucker, along with my wife Debby, started our hobby store business in 2000. It has been a lifelong dream to own my own model railroad hobby store. We have grown from a 5’ x 10’ enclosed trailer to a store (which I never thought we could fill) and web-site. We were excited when our son Jeff and his family moved back to Deshler and joined us in 2017. We look forward to serving modelers long into the future. We still love doing the week-end “train shows” as we travel throughout the country and get to meet many of our customers in person.
Thank you for visiting our website and I hope someday we will have the privilege of meeting in person if we haven’t already. Always remember, “Have fun with your trains”.
We're happy to include Bachmann as a donor!
MORE THAN 190 YEARS OF BACHMANN PRODUCTS
Bachmann Industries continued to lead the way in innovative model railroading. Bachmann introduced its premium Spectrum® line in 1988, which emphasizes highly detailed, faithfully reproduced locomotives and train sets. In 1988, Bachmann created the Big Haulers™ line in Large Scale. The company was delighted to become the distributor of Thomas & Friends™ in the United States in 2002, and now delivers these beloved locomotives, train sets, and accessories to aspiring engineers in both HO and Large Scale. Bachmann acquired Williams Electric Trains in 2007 (now known as Williams™ by Bachmann) to expand its offering of O gauge three-rail trains. We are the only model train company to offer HO, N, On30, O, and G scale lines.
Now in our third century, we continue to adhere to our founder's vision of providing fine craftsmanship at affordable prices while striving to bring our customers the variety of choices and innovation guaranteed by the Bachmann name.

Kato USA
A pioneering legacy
Founded in 1957 as Sekisui Kinzoku Company, we have since utilized our mold technology to manufacture and sell model railway products. In particular, the N gauge model we released in 1965 was the first made in Japan, and has since established our reputation as a pioneer in N scale models. Realistic textures and shapes that rival the presence of the real thing! The expectations of model railway fans are endless and so are the challenges for manufacturers. In order to cultivate the comprehensive technical capabilities required for uncompromising product manufacturing, we have implemented a fully integrated in-house production system, from design to production, and established our own unique style.
Kato Starter sets
Whether you’re new to N-Scale Modeling or an Absolute Pro, KATO’s Starter Sets contain everything you need to enjoy model railroading right out of the box!
KATO’s UNITRACK System is the most robust track system in N-SCALE! It’s super easy to put together and you can construct a temporary layout or a permanent display with ease thanks to the UNI-JOINER connector on each track piece.
Burning River 'N' Society
The Burning River N Society, or BRNS for short, is a club of Northeast Ohio area N-scale model railroaders. BRNS, established in the early 1970s in Cleveland, Ohio, is a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c)(3) status.
The Club's objective is to promote and practice N-scale model railroading as a community activity. Membership is open to any person actively engaged, or desiring to become engaged in N-scale model railroading.
BRNS does not have a permanent layout but participates in nearly 12 model train shows each year using an NTRAK layout and a smaller N-scale layout known as our Ohio layout. Both are stored and transported in trailers. The club frequently takes part in these shows, featuring a T-Trak layout comprised of both member-owned and club-owned T-Trak modules.
The BRNS website is currently offline, though we have an active presence on Facebook.

CORDELE RAILWAY PARK
Cordele Railway Park
Cordele Railway Park located downtown adjacent to the Cordele Railroad Diamond, just West of Hwy 41/7th Street.
The park has an observation platform, parking area, and a large green space. Historic markers detailing the railroad history of Cordele will be displayed as well.
The Diamond is a unique railroad structure where three different railroads: CSX, Northfork Southern, and the Heart of Georgia Railroad, intersect. This location is excellent for RailFans to watch trains.
Cordele Railfan Festival
While many locals in small towns across Georgia complain about the delays caused by trains crossing the railroad tracks in their downtowns, the city of Cordele has embraced its rail history. In doing so, it is welcoming people from allover the world – virtually and in-person – to this small South Georgia town.
The Railfan Festival draws about 400 people to downtown each year, says Monica Rentfrow, director of Downtown Cordele. This year’s event is Saturday, Nov. 11. “I know that’s not a lot for the bigger cities, but for little, rural Cordele, that’s pretty awesome to have that number of people in downtown in a day,” she says.
Originally founded as a junction between two major railroads, Cordele was named after the Savannah, Americus & Montgomery (SAM) Railroad president’s daughter, Cordelia. The city is one of the only places in the South for rail enthusiasts to view a “unique” diamond crossing, which more than 80 trains pass over each day. The historic SAM Shortline – “Georgia’s Rolling State Park” – departs on railways excursions from downtown as well, with several trips in November and December.
As part of a rail tourism plan, the city created RailWay Park in the heart of downtown, the star of which is a recently opened $700,000 viewing platform for folks to sit a spell and watch the trains. There’s even live, 24/7 streaming from the platform on a dedicated YouTube channel, Virtual Railfan. People from all over the world are tuning in, Rentfrow says.
