The club was established in 1977 and has since grown to become one of the largest and most active live steam clubs in the United States.

The railroad features multiple bridges, tunnels, and scenic vistas, and is operated by members of the club using their own steam locomotives and rolling stock.

In addition to the live steam railroad, OCME also has a large model railway exhibit hall, where members display their model train layouts and collections. The exhibit hall also features a workshop area where members can work on their models and learn from other members.
