Albany N-Trak - calendar and more

Last update March 20, 2024

The previous web page is gone. Capital.Net / Logical.Net has stopped providing the service. They are no longer a recommended operation...

We're also somewhat active on Groups.io -

https://groups.io/g/AlbanyNTrak/topics

And on Facebook -

https://www.facebook.com/AlbanyNTrak

And we should update our section of the T-Trak Wiki -

A prettier version of this web page is usually at:

Schedule through Fall 2024.


NTRAK, the NMRA, Speedwitchmedia, and others, continue to run "virtual" events – conventions, clinics, etc. Some are videos you can find elsewhere, some are live, some are weak and some are quite good. YMMV!


NTrak Zoom meetings - monthly, second Saturday, 4:00 pm EST

These usually run for an hour with 3-4 segments that range from so-so to good. You must be an NTrak member to get the live link, but the recorded videos are posted on YouTube a month later for anyone to see.
