The I-80
Group is a group of HO model railroaders residing along the I-80
corridor in Pennsylvania. Their Flagship Train consists of custom
painted cars from members' layouts, bracketed by an FA-FB pair
of locomotives and an observation car painted in the scheme of
the 1947 Freedom Train -- symbolic of the group's freedom from
the rules and edicts of any national model railroading organization.
