Welcome to SARMC: O Division
The O division of the Swanton Area Railroad and Model Club has set up train displays at the Henry County Fair, the Fulton County Fair, the Manor House, and the Toledo Zoo for many years. In 2025, we completed our 39th year at the Lights Before Christmas at the Toledo Zoo!
Recently, we have added Sauder's Museum to our list of shows. In 2026, we will be adding two new shows, the Wild Lights Weekend in Perrysburg in January (see Upcoming Events) and the Greater Toledo Toy and Train Show at Owens Community College in March.
We have many club members who can provide a wealth of information about the history of trains and how to repair or restore your trains. We have members who enjoy the pre-war trains from the 30' and 40's as well as those who prefer the terrific detail and features that modern technology brings. And, everything in between!
Feel to free to talk to our members about your train interests! That's why we are here!
Congratulations to the Swanton Area Railroad and Model Club!
The Swanton Area Railroad and Model Club was recognized by the Toledo Metroparks for the 2025 Dedicated Group service award at their annual banquet to recognize groups and individuals who contribute over 100 hours of volunteer work for the year. Many thanks to all of club members who contributed to the over 400 hours that we had in setting up, running, and tearing down of the 2025 Holidays at the Manor House O-gauge display. Dennis & Denise Heban, Marianne Duvendack, and Randy & Gloria Box represented the club at the banquet.
