So Mentor now has another tourist attraction. I visited Mentor last August to see President James Garfield’s home.

Here’s a link to their website for some enlargeable high-res pics of the layouts.

That’s not terribly far from where Willie lives.

Yeppir, I’m pretty sure the venture capitalists are going to jump on this opportunity. It’s a vanity business that even if fully capitalized, would have a lot of trouble even recovering daily operational costs.
OTOH, it’s a local article, and the goal is to give free advertising to spur local businesses and boost tourism, so it’s not going to say, “guy with too much spare time builds big model railroad; expects other people to pay to watch him play with it.”

Lots of people, young and old, love model trains. If it makes them and their kids happy to visit this place and see these incredible layouts, who cares about all that other stuff about his alleged personal motives.

I wish them luck but for me “Roadside America” in Shartlesville Pa. will always be the King of model railroads.
