The Club

The Coopersburg Area Society of Model Engineers is a group of Model Rail enthusiasts, with their headquarters in the basement of the Coopersburg Borough Building, Main and State Sts. Coopersburg Pa. A formal lease was signed April 1, 2005.

The group formed when the members of the former East Penn Model R.R. Club from Emmaus, PA., and the Bux-Mont Model Engineers, from Quakertown PA., merged to create a new group. While still retaining the East Penn Model Railroad Club Incorperation, the group operates under the name Coopersburg Area Society of Model Engineers.

The club members are constructing a multi level, H.O. scale, DCC controled walk around layout. Bench work was started in February 2006 and completed in 2011. With all the main line track and turnouts installed, trains can operate on each of the three levels. Installation of scenery is well under way at several locations.
