Train Mountain was the brain child of Quentin Breen who has since passed on. When he left it was in dire straits financially. In fact it had a huge IRS lean on it. It is now a combination of 501c3/c7 and is in good standing.
For videos go to the website and you'll find links to many videos showing the property. There is also a video that has been showing on RFD-TV about our International Meet held every 3 years. The last in 2012 and the next in 2015, called our Triennial Meet. A couple of thousand foamers and 300 plus 7 1/2 inch gauge trains! Quite a show.
