It's called EnterTRAINment Junction, and it is the ONLY railroad-themed
family entertainment center on the planet! The new, $10 million project
features an incredible 80,000 square-feet of unmatched family fun, all under
one roof.
There is something for everyone at EnterTRAINment Junction, including
-- The WORLD'S LARGEST (25,000 sq. ft.) indoor model train display
-- A spectacular children's interactive play area featuring the
ever-popular Thomas the Tank trains
-- A fun and educational American railroading museum
-- Hand-cranked railroad cars for kids
-- Unbelievable walk-thru mazes filled with changing sights and sounds
with surprises around every corner.
Visitors enter EnterTRAINment Junction's front doors onto Main Street and
are immediately whisked back to an American village square of yesteryear, with
a brick-lined street, replica gaslights, park benches, garden landscaping, a
1930s train station, plus small town shops, party rooms and a sidewalk cafe.
What visitors will never forget is Train Journey, the largest indoor train
display in the world. Ninety (!) large, G-scale trains are running everywhere,
immersing visitors in a 25,000 square-foot environment. More than two miles of
track take visitors on a panoramic journey through three epochs in U.S.
history, from the earliest days of steam engine railroading up through today's
modern diesel locomotives.
Train tracks are bustling all around the visitor -- below, at eye level
and some even 11' in the air. There are carefully hand-crafted cities, towns,
saw mills and factories, forests, bridges, mountains, valleys, plateaus,
intricate trestles, tunnels, trolley cars, and fast-traveling subway trains.
A cascading, one-story tall waterfall provides a dramatic backdrop for the
entire area; water flows through canals and rivers into a large lake.
All trains are large G-scale trains, 1/24th the size of the real thing.
Each train car -- and there are over 1,200 of them! -- is about the size of a
loaf of bread.
EnterTRAINment Junction is open seven days a week (Closed Easter Day,
Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day). Hours: 10 a.m.-7 p.m. every day except
Sunday, when hours are noon-6 p.m. For more information, go to
