Brazos Valley Railroad Society

BVRS was formed in February 1993 and construction of 4-foot modular tables began at that time. Two months later, the first set of 12 tables was constructed and connected together. By June 1993 the tracks were powered up and trains began running. The modeling theme of the layout was the Brazosport area. At this time the modular tables were stored at members' homes and brought to meetings and assembled together to run trains.

In January 1994 BVRS transported the layout to a Great American Train Show in Houston. The Club layout won Second Place in the show.

In 2007 the Club moved the layout and exhibits into a permanent quarters in the Brazoria Heritage Foundation (BHF) facility on Smith Street in Brazoria. The Club held its first public opening in the new space as part of the BHF Christmas Festival on December 6, 2008.
