California - T.T.O.S. Southwestern Division
Arcadia, CA - T.T.O.S. Southwestern Division is not associated with the Toy Train Operating Society
The T.T.O.S. Southwestern Division's purpose is to further the hobby of operating and collecting toy trains through the sharing of knowledge and fun with our fellow members.
Our club promotes the hobby through multiple programs including organizing and holding monthly train meets at the Masonic Temple in Arcadia, Ca. At these meets, toy trains are traded by the membership, there is an auction held, there are operating layouts and train displays, there is also a train repair clinic. Any persons seeking out information or help with toy train layout design/setup, toy train restoration or advice can meet SW members who can help. There are also sellers who can assist with toy train parts needs. The camaraderie of other operators/collectors is something special that is enjoyed at these train meets.
The T.T.O.S. Southwestern Division also sponsors the annual Cal-Stewart train meet held each November. This is the largest train meet organized on the west coast of the United States, with over 300 tables of toy trains and accessories in all gauges and manufacturers, and from all eras. T.T.O.S. Southwestern Division members have developed and constructed a large portable operating train layout which is displayed at various locations throughout Southern California during the year, as well as at our monthly train meets in Arcadia. We also hold an annual picnic for the membership and their families, each August at the Los Angeles Live Steamers (LALS) in Griffith Park.

Oregon - Columbia Gorge Model Railroad Club
Portland, OR - Welcome to the Columbia Gorge Model Railroad Club (CGMRRC), one of the largest model railroad clubs in the Western United States. Founded in 1947, CGMRRC seeks to provide a home for the HO Scale model railroad community in the Greater Portland, OR area, as well as provide education to youth groups and others interested in railroads of all sizes.
We meet once a week (Tuesdays starting at 7:30pm) to work on the layout, handle club business, and (most importantly) have fun operating our trains. While the club’s layout is devoted exclusively to DCC HO Scale models, fans of all scales are welcome.
Join us in November for our open house - each Saturday and Sunday we open our doors from 10am to 5pm for seven hours of non-stop, all-out model railroading action. After more than 30 years, our annual open house has become a family-friendly tradition for kids of all ages. We hope to see you there!

We occupy a 33 by 32 foot area, modeling a freelance design that is non-era specific in HO scale Standard gauge. We will have a small section of HO narrow gauge and dual gauge track which is currently under construction.
Some highlights are a port facility, logging, mining, and some small towns. We intend to do some operations activities, but mostly we just run trains.
