About the SVGRS
Since its founding in 1988, the Sacramento Valley Garden Railway Society has helped garden railroaders enjoy their back yards even more with large scale trains running through them. Sounds of trains running through loops of greenery enhance the entire garden experience.
​
We now have members in Alameda, Amador, Butte, El Dorado, Marin, Merced, Nevada, Placer, Sacramento, San Joaquin Stanislaus, Solano Yolo and Yuba Counties. We always welcome new members, and are able to spare you mistakes that we have all made. Join the club and take part in this incredible hobby!
Membership Benefits
SVGRS members enjoy the opportunity to participate in the social aspects of garden railroading all year around. Our typical schedule includes monthly meetings at member’s homes in April through October, open house railroad tours around Sacramento Valley, a fall BBQ, a December potluck, January dinner, February clinics, as well as numerous public events where we setup our modular table.
​
We also have work days to help each other out, exclusive G-scale equipment swap meets and sales to members, members-only articles, and numerous tools and resources to borrow. Join the club today!
