Genesee G Gauge Railway Society Information
Located in Rochester, New York, USA
The GGGRS is a "Large Scale" model Railroad club based in Rochester, NY.
The club was formed in 1991 and most members are in the Monroe County area, but we also have members who live in the Southern Tier, Finger Lakes, and other far-flung areas.
"Large Scale" model railroading means model trains that are quite a bit larger than the well-known HO or even O scales. Most Large Scale trains, including most "garden railroads" run on typical "G-Gauge" track, which has a gauge (distance between the rails) of 45mm. (1.77 inches) There are several different scales of models that can operate on this 45mm track however, including 1/20.3 scale, which represents narrow-gauge (3 foot gauge prototype) on 45 mm track. or 1/29 and 1/32 scale, which represents US Standard Gauge on the same 45mm track, and other scales.
