FREE CLASSIFIEDS IN NMRA Magazine
Classified ads are available free to all NMRA members on a space-available basis for non-commercial use only.  You can use them to buy, sell, trade or seek an item.

  1. Based on available space, each member is entitled to not more than one free classified ad per month.  In the event there is a shortage of space, preference will be given on a first-come, first-served basis based upon date received, with ads that have previously appeared being deleted first.
  2. Free ads must be 50 words or less.  Numbers, abbreviations and acronyms count as 1 word each. Name, address, city, state and zip code count as 8 words regardless of actual count.  Phone numbers count as two words, e-mail and Web addresses count as 4 words.
  3. Additional words are available for a 65-cent fee per word, per month.  The fee for additional words must be included with the advertisement.
  4. Ads may run for up to three consecutive months.  Please indicate it you wish your ad to run more than once.  Ads that do not indicate a length of run will run for three months.  The deadline for classified ads is 90 days prior to the first of the cover month in which you wish the ad to run.  For example, the deadline for the January issue is Oct. 1.
  5. Ads under the 50-word limit may be e-mailed to: editor [at] nmra.org. All other ads should be e-mailed to NMRA Classifieds at gonmra [at] pairedrail.com.  E-mailed ads must include the copy in the body of the message. NO ATTACHMENTS to e-mails.  Ads mailed to an incorrect address may be delayed or fail to appear.
  6. Orders for free ads must include the member's name, address, membership number and expiration date.  Ads submitted without this information will be rejected.
  7. In the event a free ad is later determined to have been for commercial purposes or otherwise ineligible for free status, the NMRA reserves the right to collect the appropriate fee from the advertiser.
