Jack Sessums built the Live Oak Canyon Railroad, a 15 inch gauge road in Redlands, California.
- Jack Fesco was building a Southern Pacific GS-4 Daylight in 1" scale. A member of Riverside Live Steamers bought the unfinished loco from Fecso's estate/family not long after his death. Jack Sessums did what work was required to complete the engine and it's tender. During the early-mid 1980's, Fesco's Daylight was bought by Ron Mason, who owned Jack's 3/4 inch scale Southern Pacific MT-class 4-8-2. I believe Ron later sold the Daylight some years later.
- Jack Sessums owned the Fesco GS-4, and it is the loco used in the movie Tough Guys, part of which was filmed at Jack Sessums' place.
