Thirty-two members of the mid-OhioValley Railroad Club unveiled their collection of unique trains this weekend.

These tireless hobbyists work in groups according to the type of train they work with.

The club operates through dues and donations, and the members purchase their trains that can cost anywhere from $500-$1,500.

Mark Williams and Joe Stephens are club members.

They say a layout for their trains is never complete! In fact, Stephens has been working on one layout for two years!

The club's basement is in the basement of the NOE building. They hope to be open to the public soon!
