G-scale, I'm assuming. My husband knows all about that stuff. I know just enough to be thoroughly dangerous.
bigger then that. ones you can ride on that cost as much as a car. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzurukBCfYs
The Roanoke museum used to have that size. Unfortunately, a flood wiped out that operation and it was never rebuilt.
there's one in tennisee and one (or more) in florida. there's more then that, those are just the ones i have links to from the one in sacramento california. the one up in oregon, where that was filmed, called train mountain, is really spectacular with miles and miles of track.
Decided To Have A Quick View, Ended Up Watching The Whole Video. My Uncle Used To Build Those Trains But I Was Too Young To Really Appreciate The Work That It It Took To Build One..... Cheers Glen.
i could probably build one. not steam, but a solar battery one like in my animation, and not a model. but i'd need a car/truck of some kind to get it to the nearest club track, which, where i'm living now is more then a hundred miles away. i could probably afford one or the other, but i very much doubt both. i do build in the smaller scales though. On30, HOn30, even some G. right now i've no place for a layout either. last place i lived i did though. photos on FA. where i post most of what i do. http://www.furaffinity.net/full/16971710/ is some of what i've built or modified, in each of the 3 small scales mentioned.
