We have recreated the Santa Fe Railroad across the Texas Panhandle from Canadian, TX, to Clovis, NM, by constructing an HO-scale railroad layout set in the 1950-1970s era. In addition, we have an extensive G-scale garden railroad that will be operating during the event. We have real railroad cars from the Department of Energy nuclear transport train. Kids and adults can run model trains on the G-scale layout, tour the HO-scale layout, visit the real railroad cars. Arrangements are ongoing to have several automobile clubs show off their gems, and information on the Air and Space Museum.
