Cumberland Valley Model Railroad Club

All scale model railroad club All aboard!!! The club derived its name from the Cumberland Valley Railroad. Go back in time to see Jurassic Park.
(9)

In 1996 a small group of railroad enthusiasts recognized the need for a club in the Chambersburg area, thus in April of that year the Cumberland Valley Model Railroad Club was founded. The Cumberland Valley Railroad's headquarters, which was located in Chambersburg served the Cumberland Valley from 1836 until its demise in 1919.
