That must have been a fun ride up front behind the plow. :-)

Yes, I own it. and it is similar to those seen at amusement parks. It is 1/8 scale and powered by a 7 HP kohler.

Looks like Train Mountain needs a rotary for this. I could only imagine the amount of engineering it would take to build one in this scale, let alone the power to run it.

Train Mountain actually has three rotaries. One full size antique, Southern Pacific 206, one made from scratch engineering marvel, and one commercial model mounted on a flat car. It has a Honda gas motor, somewhere around 18 to 20 HP. There are KZbin videos of the home made rotary somewhere, but I don't have a link.

Well now I know. I saw the full size but figured it would be overkill. Never thought about mounting a regular commercial model to a flat car, DUH. I would be very interested in the scratch built though. Guess I need to try to search it out. Thanks.

I know that Train Mountain has a full scale grade crossing for the main road. Where did you get the supplies for it from, and how did you install it?

I do not know where that particular equipment was obtained or the installation details, as it was before my time. Train Mountain has several prototype crossing signals, and most were donated by the railroads when they were replaced with new technology. Some were donated by collectors. You must be creative to get some items operational when it comes to replacement parts.

I'll bet. I am sooo jealous of you guys in Oregon. I want to build one of these railroads really bad (but I'm only 17 so money is an issue). Be that as it may, I am definitely going to make it a point to visit one of these days. Also, I read the Train Mountain encyclopedia, and it said the Grand Junction crossing is donated from CN.

That miniature train must have been expensive along with all the track surrounding your property. How did you ever afford to buy everything? That track must run for miles.

He owns the train but not the tracks this place is called train mountain where over a 100 railroaders bring there trains and travel down the miles of tracks and this place is open to visitors to so if you go there you can ride one of these aswell.

I see that's a miniature train you're driving, like those you'd see at amusement parks. Do you own it?
