Miniature trains

The Port Elizabeth Model Locomotive Society runs their minituare trains at Londt Park every first Sunday of the month. It is a very popular morning outing for anybody with little kids, but enjoyed just as much by the big kids (if you know what I’m saying).

    I know one big kid here who would give his right arm for a go on those trains …lol. Does anybody bang their head in the tunnel, it looks as though there is’nt much headroom. Well this post has been around the family dinner table tonight and they get our votes ” Top Shots”

    Those trains are gorgeous! Reminds me of when I was little (in the 50’s) and my Dad was in Roundtable in Bulawayo (Rhodesia). When he did his ‘President’ stint, the Roundtable built a miniture train park in the city park – we used to go for ‘free’ rides (because of my Dad!) Thanks for the memory!

    I would love to be one of the big kids riding on one of the trains. Great photos I really like the one of them coming out of the tunnel.

    What fun! I’ve a friend here in Seattle who has her own miniature (smaller scale than this) steam engine and belongs to a club which has one similar to yours.

  6. I love these scale model trains and the enthusiasts – usually old men – who build them. We had a similar group of railroad buffs near where I grew up (Berkeley, California, US.) It's great that they invite the children to ride, too. Include me – I'm one of the “big kids” that would ride! A fun photo.Three Rivers Daily Photo
