CNJ, Central of New Jersey, CRR of NJ, Central Railroad of New Jersey, Jersey Central Lines, HO scale

Welcome. This web site keeps track of the progress of our HO model of the CNJ station in old Mauch Chunk, PA in the late 1940s. Unusually, we are building this in the UK! After a visit to Jim Thorpe in 1996, we selected it as a subject and started modelling it in 2002. We are trying to copy the prototype as far as possible using plans taken from photos. All the material we have is available on this website for you to share. We welcome emails from CNJ fans and fellow modellers. UK modellers are welcome to join us in Birkenhead, Merseyside, UK. We exhibited our nearly completed layout at the Warrington MRS Annual Exhibition in the UK at the end of October 2011. There are photos on the new Exhibition page. We are also pleased to host a page detailing Glyn Thomas' model of the CNJ including Mauch Chunk. Glyn has helped us in the past with a number of building drawings.
