The Coal Division meets monthly, usually on the second Saturday of the month. Each meeting typically includes a business meeting, a model contest, and a clinic or presentation about some aspect of model or prototype railroading. Our usual meeting place is the class room at West Virginia Hobbies and Craft in the Putnam Village Shopping Center in Teays Valley. Visitors and prospective members are always welcome.
NOTE: We will be trying something new with our membership meetings. The meeting site will be open and set up by 1 PM. Members and guests are welcome to gather for socializing at that time. The business meeting will begin at 2 PM with the contest and clinic to follow.
Please check this page regularly in case we had to change a date, time, or place.
