Nauset Model Railroad Club, Inc. is a nonprofit organization based in Orleans, Massachusetts, on Cape Cod. Founded in December 1989 by Max Sarazin and local model railroading enthusiasts, the club has grown to more than 60 members. Its activities center on building and operating model railroad layouts, equipment, and exhibits, while creating opportunities for members to share ideas, techniques, and their interest in the hobby.

The club operates five layouts in G, O, S, HO, and N scales, including displays associated with John Pryke’s Union Freight and Pawtucket-Central Falls Station. Members and visitors are welcome at regular work sessions on the second, third, and fourth Fridays of each month, from 7 to 9 p.m. The club also holds public open houses during the holiday season, offering visitors a chance to see its model trains in action. Membership is available to people interested in model railroading, and the organization promotes fellowship among hobbyists and greater community awareness of the pastime. The club is located at Hilltop Plaza, 180 Route 6A, Orleans.
