Chatham Railroad Meet

Pat Rivard's O scale standard gauge layout is set at 54" which is very impressive to view. Pat has his back to us and that is Nick from ITLA laser cut model structures next to him.

On November 2, 2024 our division of the NMRA had a meet-up in Chatham, Ont. One of the layouts we visited was Pat Rivard's wonderful O scale layout. It is not narrow gauge but what I found interesting was the height of the layout. At 54" it was very impressive to view especially with the large size O scale equipment. I am planning to build another larger modular layout in On30" and that height is something to consider.

Also one of our members and current superintendent Wayne Wessner brought along some O scale displays for our lunch time display at the hall. He models O scale narrow gauge and has done a wonderful job scratch-building a boxcar tool shed. His details are very nice also.
