Paul Devitto, President of the Boothe Railway Society says with G-HO-N-S-and O gauges represented, they have "an alphabet soup" of trains at their museum.
Riley Webb, a volunteer there, says, "Railroading is part of not just American history but how particular Connecticut was shaped."
Jon Shapiro runs the G gauge trains outdoors. "G" stands for garden. He says, "We have is six loops running. We have four small ones. It’s a very nice attraction. We find it's a good draw and it really leaves people into the rest of the museum where we have more trains to our show."
Don Masso, Vice president at the BMRS says, "It’s just fun the noise they are re-creating, all the historical trains." He hopes everyone will come visit the museum, Families, grandparents, parents and the kids.
Even big kids love the trains.
