The Golden Spike Model Railroad Club

Salt Lake City, Utah, U.S.A.

Located in the basement of the Children's Museum of Utah, the Golden Spike Model Railroad Club has assembled this spectacular display of miniature engineering. A train requires over ten minutes to make a complete circuit as it passes through a massive railroad yard, roundhouse, switches, then into the country where we find numerous trestle bridges, modern design bridges. Highly realistic mountains and details help complete the scene. It is a work-in-progress, club members are endlessly adding details to the mountains and towns. Take a moment to examine these photographs. All are clickable, including the one above, for a much larger view (1024x768 pixels for the enlargements; rather large but worth it).
