History of NRAIL
In 1974, Jim FitzGerald started publishing a newsletter with the intent of establishing communications with the N-scale community about new ideas and about N-scale. That newsletter became the NTRAK Newsletter and in 1994, NTRAK became a formal organization with incorporation. In 2000, T-TRAK was introduced to the United States through the NTRAK Newsletter. In 2021 the formal name was changed to NRail.
Today, N-scale is the second most popular scale in the North America and the NRail Newsletter continues to be a communications channel for all N-scale modelers.
