THE OTTAWA VALLEY LIVE STEAMERS MODEL ENGINEERS CLUB



Founded in 1978, the Ottawa Valley Live Steamers and Model Engineers (OVLSME) is a society of live steam and model engineering enthusiasts. Club interests include building and operating large scale outdoor model locomotives, traction engines, hot air engines, model aircraft engines, steam boats, stationary engines, clocks, workshop equipment and other related activities. The purpose of the club is:

To provide fellowship and the means for fostering craftsmanship, exchange of knowledge and ideas for persons having an interest in model engineering and related activities (i.e. home shop machinist),
To build, operate and maintain a track for the operation of miniature railway locomotives, with gauge or gauges up to 7-1/4”. (currently 3-1/2", 5" and 7-1/4")
To operate, demonstrate and display other general model engineering activities (as approved by the Executive and the Safety Committee.) Some examples include home CNC conversion of small workshop machines (lathes, mills), 3D printing,
Owning a locomotive, model or other equipment is not a requirement for joining - just an interest.
