Scott,

There are a number of folks/companies who build garden railroads professionally. However, keep in mind that they may be booked for months to a year or more, depending on their area. Most of them do not limit the location that they will travel.

**Please note: there may be others who build professionally. These are the ones that either advertise with us and/or in my database. If you know of someone, feel free to add it.

You might email Scott Perry:

Although he typically designs rather than installs, he is going to have contacts.

There is a guy by the name of Paul Bussey whom, I believe, can be contacted through the Colombus Ohio, GRS.  I've seen some of his work.  It's nice stuff.

Scott,

I have seen Ads in most issues of the Garden Railways magazine for places that would travel anywhere in the US.  I do not recall their name but there is a place in Harvard Mass.  I saw an ad for recently.   If they do not travel as far as Mokena Il. maybe they would know of someone in your area.

Thank you, Jaime
