  3. Wow! I’m coming here to get inspiration for my layout. I have a 70-year-old standard-gauge Lionel set that was my uncle’s. I plan to construct a layout in NH. I will absolutely come and see this outdoor exhibit!

  4. Yes, it was a great surprise for us too! We went there expecting animals and found this fun train layout. It is all run by volunteers. Thanks again for commenting! Veronica

  5. Cool! You’ll really love it. It’s funny how model trains appeal to all ages. I couldn’t stop watching the exhibit and all the little trains going around. Wish we could have spent more time there. Have fun building your train layout. I bet you will build something really spectacular! Happy New Year, Tim! Veronica
