The 4 layouts were originally built by the City of Rochester and the Rochester PAL with assistance from Lionel Corp. in 1950. The layouts depict the 4 season with 3 of them depicting scenes reminiscent of the Rochester area and a whimsical winter scene. There are a combination of vintage and current locomotives and rolling stock, accessories for visitors to operate, and displays of vintage model and toy train items along with items of local interest.
Younger visitors will also enjoy Thomas and Friends and the Polar Express.
Admission is free, donations gladly accepted to support the continued operation and maintenance of the layouts.
These layouts have been featured in national publications and videos.
