Posted by TrainsRMe1 on Tuesday, October 6, 2015 1:34 AM

Hi all, Im usually on the modelrailroader forums, but this bit of news had to be posted here, My wife and I were on vacation nere Klamath Falls Oregon two weeks ago, and we went to this place called Train Mountain, they are a large scale railroad that has camping sites on the property for members only, the mainline is 37 scale miles long!!!! they are the Worlds biggest modelrailroad!!!!! as said by Guiness book of world records, please send a Garden railways crew out to do a interview with them, this place is spectacular!!!! I think they should get better notrity, they are located in Chiluqin Oregon, 20 or so miles north of Klamath Falls!!! take a look at their website Trainmountain.com!!!!!

Train Mountain is ride-on scale, little different than G, that's going to be outside the interest of GR. Ride-on is very much its own universe. Personally if I had room for that I would have room for a 1:1 feldbahn railroad. Why ride a model when you can have real (albiet small) trains?

   Have fun with your trains

didn't they start a huge G scale layout, and then gave up and tore it out? Greg
