Philadelphia Division MER - NMRA

    Welcome to the Philadelphia Division of the Mid-Eastern Region (MER) of the National Model Railroad Association Online!  The Philadelphia Division was formed in 1969 and serves Philadelphia and the surrounding Pennsylvania suburbs including Northern Delaware.  The division meets four times a year. More than 200 members receive our quarterly publication, The Philadelphia Dispatcher. Back issues of the Dispatcher newsletter are available for download on the Newsletters page.   

For more information about us, please use the links below to go to specific areas.  If you are ready to join in on the fun, or you have any questions, please e-mail one of the members of the Crew.

From time to time, we commission a car to be modeled that is unique to our region. See the Sales page for our latest offering.

A new feature has been added to the site. We now have the home layouts with photos that were on the Independence Junction Convention web site! Look below under Home Layouts.

We want to make your experience with the Philadelphia Division an interesting and rewarding one. We ask you to take some time to fill out a survey and tell us what you want to see and do at our meetings. Take the Survey.
