Large Scale Central

Video: A real 0-4-0 in action on the Poway Midlands RR

Last Sunday our club had its annual picnic at Old Poway Park in Poway, CA. At the park they have a beautiful, 1907 Baldwin 0-4-0 steam locomotive that runs on a 42" gauge track around the park. I spent much of my time there shooting video of this train and got a lot of interesting and unusual shots, which I’ve edited into a nifty video for YouTube:

Enjoy!

Neat loco. Thanks for posting.

That is GREAT ! . . . I’ve GOT to get over to visit that RR sometime, . . . . lived in San Diego area for a long time without even knowing of its existance :frowning:

I also never knew it was there!

Is the G scale layout still running at the nursery in Poway?

Hey that’s pretty sharp!

Doug, as far as I know the Walter Anderson’s nursery in Poway still has the G scale layout. Much of it was stolen/vandalized a few years ago but I believe it has since been rebuilt.
