The Southeastern Live Steamers track is featured in a segment of The Films of Carl Purinton. It includes footage from May 1963, May 1964, October 1967 and October 1968.
Otha Hege and Clyde Leonard were among the members of the club.
Bob Hornsby writes:
- The track was in the Charlotte, North Carolina area. I don’t know the exact location as Carl never did either. Carl was never there, but some the Charlotte boys often came north. I recall in some of Carl’s movies that one of them had a beautiful 3/4” scale Southern PS4. They did not have a ground level track. It was all elevated with 3/4” and 1” scale. The track was at the home of one of the members.
Harry Dixon wrote in The Miniature Locomotive, November-December 1954:
- Bobby Thompson of the Southeastern Live Steamers club has written that he and Live Steamer friends Don Gaither and Tom Bigham arrived home from the B.L.S. meet at Lomita, California, in fine shape after meeting so many good friends out west and covering 8,000 miles of travel.
