About Us


The Bow Valley Model Railroad Association, located in Calgary, Alberta, is a private club consisting of about 16 members whose interests include several popular scales but HO is the most common.

The club is an enthusiastic supporter of the Calgary Model Railroad Society (CMRS) and has a seat on its Board of Directors.

The club has no permanent space. Since the pandemic, the club has been holding regular, biweekly meetings by Zoom and attendance is usually very good. There are some out-of-town members and this format accommodates them very well.

We occasionally have room for one or two new members, so contact us through our web site if you are interested.

The club participates in most model railroad shows and activities in and around Calgary and is a supporter of the Calgary Model Railway Society.

The club attends SUPERTRAIN in Calgary every year and also shows in Edmonton, Moose Jaw, and other locations.

Our modular layout can be configured for small and large spaces and is at a low level to facilitate viewing by children and handicapped individuals. New modules are always being developed and existing modules are upgraded from time-to-time as well. So every display is different and this adds interest for both the viewing public and the members.

The club is proud of its public service record and often displays a layout at seniors' residences and other similar locations around the city. These events provide an opportunity for our members to meet in person and run trains!

The club celebrated its fiftieth anniversary in 2013 which makes us 60 now (and still going strong!).
