For our private two-hour photographic opportunity, the cost is $10/pp. If you wish to also visit TrainTopia (the indoor model train exhibit) after our photographic time, the cost is an additional $5 ($15 total). TrainTopia opens at 10:00 a.m.
Payment will be made upon arrival. Cash is preferred to facilitate a quicker entry; credit card payments will also be accepted.
While We Are There
Our tour will be “guided” during our visit with appropriate stops for photographing. Wandering is not part of the policy of the Museum.
Tours are outdoors over uneven surfaces with no cover from the sun. There are no paved sidewalks at this point in time.
When close to the trains, the surface is ballast (a loose granite) which is used to keep the train rails in place.
Steps will be provided for the two train cars we will be allowed to go inside to photograph.
Please dress for the terrain, heat, and bring plenty of fluids. (There are no restrooms or water fountains available at the site at this time.)
Some of the trains have been restored, some have not.
Suggested Equipment
Tripod/monopod; a selection of lens, comfortable walking shoes, bottled water, sun protection.
