As I was growing up, Dad went to several train meets on the property of Perry Willis in Alliance Ohio. I believe there would be near 5 steam engines running during these meets. I am currently checking on when these meets were held. I suspect it would have been in the late 1960s or early 1970s.

Besides my father, my brother, Jim Bacon (a family friend), Perry Willis and one other person ran the engines.

The following photos were from those meets.
