The New Jersey Live Steamers, Inc. (NJLS) has been running live steam engines in central New Jersey since 1961. We are privileged to live in a state that has seen a lot of important industrial history from canals, mills, mines, and railroading to many advances in engineering technology. We encourage the interest in model engineering of all kinds and share a love for living steam engines.
This website is provided solely for the benefit of our members. NJLS is a private club, open only to members and their invited, supervised guests. For the sake of members' privacy, there is minimal identifying information provided on this website. Members have been provided contact information, which they are required to keep confidential and should use with the utmost discretion. If you wish to contact the club, phone 908-604-2770, or write to: New Jersey Live Steamers, P.O. Box 205, Liberty Corner, NJ 07938, or email us at <njlivesteamers at gmail dot com>.
We all seem to enjoy seeing photos, so keep sending them for possible publication on the website or in The Whistle Blast. However... Please EMAIL them (rather than sending snapshots in the mail). You may send as many photos as you wish; there are no restrictions on size, amount, nor resolution, as long as they are in .JPEG FORMAT. Email photos, as well as all other correspondence, to the club's email address: <njlivesteamers at gmail dot com>. This will be the only active email address from now on, so that we can avoid getting lots of spam in our personal email boxes. It seems that our personal email addresses were distributed to mailing lists, blogs, etc., so we were getting lots of junk mail. This also can occur when you write out the email address as a hypertext link, so that's why it is spelled out (at, dot). Please don't put club members' email addresses into mass mailing or group mailing lists; no one wants the junk mail that ensues. Thanks from all your email friends!
The NJLS webpage contains current activities, significant information, and forms, and an edited version of The Whistle Blast newsletter. If you wish to find some of the best live steam resources available, go to Father Jay Finelli's great website, <www.steamingpriest.com>; it is loaded with lots of worthwhile information, pictures, and links to other good sites.
