OTTS Ohio Toy Train Summit (pics)
Posted by spankybird on Thursday, September 15, 2005 7:14 PM
Last night we had another meeting of the OTTS. It was hosted at Charlie layout.

Be sure to click on the pics to enlarge them. [;)]


Charlie is on the left and John (CSXT30) is on the right



and of course Keith (1688torpedo) was there and that’s Norm in the background.

Charlie has a very nice display room for his trains (kind of like mine) and a second room for his layout. [;)]











And the Layout [:D][8D][;)]




























Of course you know I took many more pics but they will wait for another day.

What a great event. It makes one proud to be a Buckeye.

Great photos of this historic event, Tom

Do we know when the NCTTS meeting is scheduled? I bet it will never get off the ground.[:D] Too many things distract that group, like hurricanes.

Thought I glimpsed a Rebel soldier hiding on that layout. [;)] Good job. Pretty good group as Buckeye was not there. [:D]

Looks like YUZ GIZ had a blast.
Wish I was there, nice layout.
Why couldn't I live 200 miles NW?

Looks like a good time was had by all.

I do live in Ohio but too far to go on a weeknight. Maybe another time.
