1995 IBLS Meet at LALS (part 3)

This is some footage taken from the 1995 International Brotherhood of Live Steamers (IBLS) meet hosted by the Los Angeles Live Steamers. There was a west coast ramble starting before the IBLS meet and continuing on after it. There is also some footage from that ramble taken at Riverside Live Steamers, Mesa Grande Western, Goleta Valley Railroad Club, and Bitter Creek Western Railroad. Oh and by the way the "Los Aneles" typo in the video was not my fault and there was nothing I could do about it.....

Does the Goleta Valley Railroad Club still exist?

[ELBARTO3519]

@EastwoodBirds yes and no. After Seymore Johnson's death the club knew they would need to leave his property. the club was given the track to find a new location but they had some disagreements and part of the club split up and became the Ventura County Live Steamers while the other half remained the Goleta Valley RR Club. Ventura was kicked out of their property and currently has no track and Goleta Valley never found a location and wasted the thousands and thousands of dollers left to them.
