"There is great pleasure in operating Lionel^® trains and accessories."

Welcome to the Lionel Operating Train Society (LOTS) web-site. The members of LOTS are united by their love of operating and collecting Lionel toy trains.  Members have a variety of interests within the hobby.  Among the various interests, most are involved with scenery, electronics, operations, lighting, accessories and repairing motors.  Some members even operate some of the fine related products from other O-gauge manufacturers, such as K-line by Lionel, Weaver, Williams and MTH Electric Trains. The most important and common denominator for all is having fun! 
Please browse our web-site to see what LOTS has to offer.
