The 2025 March O Scale Meet in Chicago was fantastic! There were tons of nice models calling my wallet. I had a great time, sold some of my surplus models and brought home some new-to-me models.

Here are a few more images of the models that were on the tables at the show.

I wanted to buy this nicely built MKT boxcar, but the table holder was nowhere to be found. I circled back many times on Sunday and never saw them.

These three RS-3 were built up from Kemtron kits. They were fantastic! They got a lot of attention during the show. What I thought was as nicer than the models was the gentleman behind the tables who built them, Richard Rusnak.

That brings up the thought that the show was not all about the models. It’s about the people and the models. Like Rob Adams and his son John.

Once all the models were packed in the car it was time to think about the ride home. I did split the drive home in two on the return trip.

Funny thing, I sold a good portion of what I brought to the show, but the car seemed to have just as many models in it going home, maybe more than what I had brought out with me.
