BYMRR Train Store partners with The Model Railroad Museum of Hampton Roads, a leading destination for model railroad enthusiasts across Virginia’s Hampton Roads region.
The Museum preserves model railroading history and artistry through meticulously crafted layouts, rare locomotives, and decades of collector expertise. Exhibits span multiple scales and eras, welcoming hobbyists from beginners to experienced collectors.
We operate within the Museum, surrounded by the sights and sounds of model trains. This partnership allows us to serve the community while supporting the Museum’s mission through regular contributions.
Our affiliation embodies shared values: advancing model railroading education, preserving the hobby’s heritage, and fostering community. Whether you visit the Museum or shop with us, you’re supporting a tradition that keeps model railroading vibrant.
Explore The Model Railroad Museum of Hampton Roads and discover the collections firsthand. Visit their website (MRMHR.org) for open hours, admission, and event information. If you are inspired by what you see in the Museum and would like to get started in the hobby, we would be happy to help you with your first train set; or if you just need supplies for your current layout at home or in the club, we can help with that also.
If you would like to learn more about model railroading, just sign up for one of our classes or hands-on clinics. We also have a STEAM Program for children to learn how to use science, technology, engineering, art and math as disciplines that apply to building model railroads.
