Alto Model Train Museum
Welcome to the Alto Model Train Museum’s YouTube channel. We’re located at 1117 9th Avenue, Altoona Pa, down the street from the well known “Altoona Memorial Museum” and is only about 15 minutes from the famous Horse-Shoe Curve. We have operating layouts in HO, O, S, N, G, and even LEGO!
The Alto Model Train Museum Association (AMTMA) is a non profit model train club formerly located in the "Antique Depot" in Duncansville but have since moved, we also operate the train display at Lakemont Park's "Lights on the Lake." Our mission is to preserve & promote the rich history of model railroading and of our local area.
2025 Hours: public open houses every Saturday 10AM to 2PM. Look for additional upcoming events at the end of each new video's description. Thank you for visiting!
