Hey Everybody! Now, we are on full time to the 2021 Convention and are excited to announce that the National N Scale Convention will be returning to the uniquely American Wild, Wild West. This area hosted one of the first passenger train robberies (1870) as well as having some scenic railroad vistas that are really unchanged since the 1860’s. So, this years’ venue is alongside the original Central Pacific Railroad alignment of the 1860’s Transcontinental Railroad, the famed Overland Route which is now owned and operated by the Union Pacific Railroad. The National N Scale Convention will be held in Reno (Sparks), Nevada. Additionally, there are plans to have a dinner cruise for a Friday Night social event. These activities are in addition to the Convention Banquet, Welcome Reception, Manufacturer’s Breakfast, Live Auction and Swap Meet.

This area is full of history, set against some of the most spectacular scenery that ever got to host a railroad. The actual dates for the Convention are Wednesday June 23, 2021 through Sunday June 27, 2021. However, there are plans to have an “early bird” event on Tuesday, June 22, 2021 involving vintage prototypical Railroad equipment (1:1 scale) at the Western Pacific Railroad Museum located in Portola, CA, along the fabled Feather River route. Also, in the very preliminary stages are the very popular home model railroad layout tours as well as at least one “bucket list” excursion event.
