Society Meetings and Upcoming Events of Interest

This page lists the regular BTS meetings, and upcoming events of interest to the BTS and site visitors. 
 
The main BTS event is the annual train show. At this show the club assembles the entire layout of 18 modules. In addition, we participate in a number of local and regional train shows with a static display of one or more of our modules and selected locomotives and rolling stock.  In the summer we hold a society picnic; we also have a Christmas meeting/party in December.

Monthly Society Meetings
Wednesdays        

From time to time we schedule Fun and Run sessions on a Wednesday evening at Harry Raynis' in Naperville from 6:30 to 9:30 pm. All BTS members and prospective members are welcome.
