Oak Park Model Train Club

Description

The Oak Park Society of Model Engineers (also known as OPSME) Youtube Channel. This channel is a model railroad club located in the Dole Center of Oak Park, Illinois. This club has been here since 1964. The club is open every Monday and Wednesday nights from 7-9 pm in the lower level of the Dole Center. We currently have more than 60 regular and affiliate members ranging from high schoolers to senior citizens. We are an HO scale club modeled after the CGWRR from Oak Park to Iowa. Every year, we hold 2 open houses where people of all ages can visit the club, run trains, meet our members and see the progress of the layout. We also do the All American Rail Road show at LTHS in La Grange, Illinois every March where people can see trains, get to know our club, and even pick up membership to join OPSME. The club also sets up a small layout and table every June at Day in Our Village in conjunction with the Park District of Oak Park to meet and greet with fellow locals and train fans.
