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.
