Wisconsin - St. Croix Railroad Inc. (SCRR), Hudson, Wisconsin USA
Hudson, WI - Founded in 1971, the St. Croix Railroad (SCRR) is a hobby organization primarily dedicated to Miniature Railroads, though any form of Model Engineering is welcome - Traction Engines, Boats, Stationary Engines, Internal Combustion, or even unpowered models. We have approximately ten acres of land, of which nine is occupied by three discrete railroad lines in 7½ inch gauge, 4¾ inch gauge and a mixed gauge track with 4¾, 3½ and 2½ inch gauges. Locomotives are Live Steam, diesel, gasoline and battery powered.
The SCRR is not a commercial amusement attraction - it is a 501(c)(3) educational corporation on privately held land. We do, however, operate monthly open days on the last Sunday of the month in the summer when we share the hobby with people interested in Railroads and other Model Engineering.
