NLOE

Founded in June 1983, the Nassau Lionel Operating Engineers, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization and one of the most respected O-gauge model railroad clubs in the Northeast. What began as a group of Long Island train enthusiasts has grown into an institution — a Levittown landmark that has welcomed thousands of families, collectors, and first-time visitors through its doors for over four decades.

NLOE built the current layout from scratch — now recognized as one of the largest O-gauge installations in the United States.

As a proud member of the Levittown Chamber of Commerce and Levittown Town Council community, NLOE has co-designed exclusive Long Island themed club cars with Lionel since 1989 — each a numbered, limited-edition collectible. The club averages 10 open house days per year, takes its portable layout to community events annually, and installs static Lionel displays at four Long Island public libraries each holiday season. Admission to every open house is always free.
