Here are some pics from last nights OTTS meeting. There was a total of 6 of us present. Buckeye – they all loved the membership cert.

Phil has a small ‘L’ shape layout. It is a tinplate tube track 3 rail. He also has a loop of HO and N (I think. It was too small for me to really see)




L to R is Phil, Charlie, and Ed.


Some of his Clock Work trains




Check out his Trolley running on the overhead lines.




Some of his RR artifacts


and we played with his live steam engine ( will post more pics later on that)


Running Trains


and special guest “Slider” [:D]

And for those of us who will never forget [;)] [}:)] [:p]

Great photos of another great OTTS Meeting. Since the oil cans were handy I assume you gave a presentation on how to oil your transformer or controller.
