Conventions

  

 

Every few years, the Saint John Society of Model Railroaders hosts a gathering of model railroaders from around Atlantic Canada and New England. This is the Maritime Federation of Model Railroaders annual convention and we invite the North Eastern Region (NER) of the National Model Railroad Association to join us. Attendees enjoy displays, portable model railroad layouts, models, clinics, industry tours, banquet and social events.

One of the highlights of the 2016 convention was recognizing the contribution of Saint John model railroader, Bob Boudreau, for his years of leadership and service to the club and to the hobby. Sadly, Bob left us in 2024, but his legacy lives on.
