Went for a bike ride today at Brackenridge Park in San Antonio, when I had to stop at a crossing for this beauty. I think she belongs to the zoo here:

Nice! I love 1/4 scale stuff. There's one in my area at a local Golf Course, open to tourists during the summer months. I still haven't been to see that one yet! Shame on me. When I do , I'll get pictures.

Hi All,
There was one at a golf course/amusement park in Jacksonville Florida, in the late 60's early 70's that I always wanted to go to as a kid. Never could talk Mom and Dad into it. The tracks ran next to the road for a ways on the otherside of a creek/ditch and then they crossed a small wooden bridge and headed in to the woods. I don't know why, but I thought that bridge was really cool. I have tried to find info. on the place, but when you don't know the name, it really slows you down, LOL.
Anyone been around there at about that time and know of it?
There is/was a guy near Richmond Illinois that had his own train like this. I'm not sure how much tack he had but it looked like it went through a wooded area and out around some farm land. I think he also had a little shop and sold Lionel trains.
Mike
