60 Years for HO Train Club in Marion, OH! (ex-C&O, EL, NYC, PRR, now CSX & NS)

Congratulations to the club JT. 60 years really IS an accomplishment. I wonder how many can make a similar claim and what might be the longest running club.

Our local 2 rail 0-gauge club is a bit older and they are justifiably proud. Your club should be too.

Congratulations to your club. 60 years is a long time for a club. My family is originally from Marion but I haven't been back in years. My great great grandfather founded the Fahey Bank. Do you model it at all on the layout?
