Overview

Train buffs will no doubt be impressed with the more than a dozen large-scale model trains dating from the late 1880s -- American steam engines, streetcars and trolleys to modern freight and passenger trains -- as they travel on nearly a quarter-mile of ground-level tracks and across bridges, through tunnels, past dramatic waterfalls and along overhead trestles.
