Welcome!

We are the Ozarks Model Railroad Organization, a 501(c)(3) located in Springfield, MO. For over 30 years, we have used our building located on historic Commercial street to connect prototype modelers, rail enthusiasts, and members of the general public. Our building features a 20ft x 60ft HO Scale (1:87) layout of the Frisco RR Central Division, as well as historical images, railroad memorabilia, and a seminar space.

We open the building to the general public every Tuesday evening, from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, as well as every 1st Saturday of the month, 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Beyond these regular openings, we also host informative seminars, skill classes, and specialized operating sessions, many of which are free to attend.

In addition to this, we run the annual OMRA Springfield Train Show, a gathering of modelers, historians, operators, and vendors that cover all aspects of Model Railroading. Our recent Shows have featured dozens of layouts, hundreds of vendors, and thousands of attendees spanning all generations. 

We believe that Model Railroading is the world’s greatest hobby. We’d love to introduce you to it! Stop by our building during open hours for a free tour of our Layout, or check out our Facebook page for regular updates and calendar events. We look forward to seeing you at our building at 424. W. Commercial St, Springfield, MO 65802!
