Trains, Planes, and Automobiles

by John Weckerle

We join you today “from the road.” Well, trains, planes and automobiles are, in fact, something we spent some time with yesterday, at the Northlandz, Home of the Great American Railway in Flemington, New Jersey.  Billed as the largest model train layout in the world, Northlandz may be just that.  With about a 1-mile tour and 8 miles of track, the museum boasts hills of up to 30 feet.  The level of detail is, in some cases, truly impressive, and there is both a sense of history and a sense of humor embodied in the presentation.  We recommend stopping by if you are in the neighborhood.
