Nevada - Las Vegas Garden Railway Society
Las Vegas, NV - Our mission is to encourage the hobby of Garden Railroading by providing a congenial membership for families interested in trains. We are working to provide a source of education, information, experience and encouragement, as well as volunteer assistance, for members building their own garden or indoor layouts. We provide members with the opportunity to build, furnish, and maintain a modular layout. We endeavor to introduce the hobby to the public through periodic display of the modular layout in locations open to the general public. We encourage all members to volunteer, run trains, and discuss the hobby with interested people at modular setups.
Individual members come from all walks of life. Educators, Firemen, Homemakers, Corporate Executives, Skilled Craftsman, and Retirees. Our members ages range from "twenty-somethings" to "seventy-somethings" and membership includes your Family.

Nevada - Silver State Division of the Toy Train Operating Society
Boulder City, NV - TTOS – Silver State Division, Lionel Ambassador and home to 26 members is located in Boulder City, Nevada.
Founded in 1983, the Silver State Division of the Toy Train Operating Society is the only 3-rail O-Gauge club with a large permanent layout in Nevada. The layout is inside a refurbished 1912 Pullman passenger car. In 2003, the Nevada State Railroad Museum along with the Friends of the Nevada Southern Railway- Model Railroaders partnered with the Silver State division to refurbish and operate a Lionel train layout in the “Club Car.” It officially opened for public weekend visits in 2013. The club also operates a scenic 5' x 32' four tier layout that is fully wired with TMCC and Legacy.
During several major museum events, the TTOS have smaller layouts set up for toddlers to operate. They pride themselves on encouraging children to touch the layout and run the trains. The words “Don’t Touch” are never said to children.
In addition to the Club Car and local events, the Silver State Division started a Boy Scout Merit Badge program with the NSRM and the Friends. Members contribute their time and expertise using Lionel Trains to demonstrate various types of railroad trains, train safety and Operation Lifesaver during local Boy Scout events.
