In Fred Loveridge’s small town, the main employer is a factory called Barney’s Big Bricks. It’s just down the road from the church and cemetery.

The carousel on the east side runs daily. Trains on the local railroad line, the Beaver Valley and Donnelly, bring a bit of the outside world into tiny, isolated Pleasantville.

The Western Reserve Model Railroad Museum will be having an open house to raise funds of the operating expenses of the museum. The show will be from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Feb. 20, and 10 to 5 p.m. Feb. 21.

The train show will involve vendors buying and selling model trains and other merchandise. The cost is $5 per adult and $10 per family. There is no charge for children younger than 18 if accompanied by a paid adult.
