ABOUT THE HIGHLAND PACIFIC
The Highland Park Society of Model Railroad Engineers, Inc. (the club) currently operates a large HO-scale layout of a fictional railroad known as the Highland Pacific. The club is supported by some 30 members. Founded in April 1948 in the back of a hobby shop in the Highland Park area of Los Angeles, the club is one of the older and better-known model railroad clubs in the Los Angeles area.
The club has been featured on KTLA Morning News with Gayle Anderson and has appeared in major model railroading magazines. The principle goal of the Society is the construction of a fun-to-operate model railroad which includes a variety of operational possibilities for all members, complete with eye-catching scenery.
The Highland Park Society of model Railroad engineers, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.
