Welcome to the official website of the All Points North Model Railroad Association Conroe Texas Founded in 1981 as a social club APN evolved and became a modular layout club setting our layout up for display in malls and at public train shows and between shows setting the layout up in rented storefronts where we ran trains for our own enjoyment. In 2001 APN completed construction of a new 2500 square foot clubhouse located on two acres of land in Conroe Texas just north of Houston and set up our modular layout in a building that we now owned. In early 2003 we began construction of our permanent layout.
