Hello all Trainz members,
I would like to inform you about a model railroad in Windsor Nova Scotia. It is near the amusement park and the Windsor & Hantsport Rail yard. To get to it from Halifax, Nova Scotia, take the 101 to exit 6, go to Centennial Dr. and follow the road until it comes to a turn. You'll see a sign for the railroad.
If you come from the Annapolis Valley, drive on the 101 past the blockhouse until you come to exit 6, and from then on the instructions are the same as if you came from Halifax.
The railway is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Atlantic Time) on alternate Sundays (it ran today, on the 18 of July, so it'll run next on the first of August).
The railway features two working steam locos (a Mikado, 2-8-2 and a Hudson, 4-6-4) a diesel locomotive, a gasoline locomotive and some other electric locos.
The new water tower and coal tipple are really nicely done. The admission is free, but the railway accepts donations. All the wagins and locos are at 1/8 scale.
If you want to know how to get to Nova Scotia, you can get there from the Airport with Air Canada and CanJet, or take the VIA Rail Ocean. I highly recomend Blomidon Provincial Park if you plan to stay in the area. It's got some glorious scenery.
