From LA I headed down to San Diego. Whats to see here? Well theres plenty, but my reason for coming is the largest Model Railroad Museum in the Country. The museum was located in the basement of a building in a large park in San Diego. This park also has the world famous zoo among other things, so there was people everywhere in the park. After finding a parking spot I made my way to the museum. It has several different clubs who each have their own exhibit. Some of them are based on the area and feature large scenes from real curves or bridges and tunnels. One of the exhibits, had a very large scene with a gouge about 4 or 5 foot deep covered in plaster. It was amazing. Another club had a massive area where the trains would wind down from the upper level to the lower level. This was based on the actual train line through the mountains in California. I’ll let the pictures do the talking.
I will be travelling America in August 2010, Here i will share my experiences.
