My husband's uncle has two Live Steam Trains at the St. Croix Railroad club near Hudson Wisconsin. We visit fairly often and enjoy riding the trains. You can see Uncle Jim and us in the photos.Live Steam means that most of the trains are powered by steam but many of the trains at these railroad clubs also use electricity, gas, propane and other fuels. Uncle Jim has a third train that runs on gasoline.
Most of the Live Steam trains are handmade but you can also get kits or buy a train someone has already built.
The St. Croix Railroad club is on 9 acres and has many tunnels and bridges and is open to the public on some weekends. You can ride the trains for free, but donations are encouraged.
Live Steam Trains have become more popular over the years because they offer the benefit of real steam engines at a lower cost and in less space than standard trains. These trains can hold many passengers and you can experience the thrill of a real steam locomotive without the expense.
Train Mountain has the biggest live steam layout with over 25 miles of track and is located in Chiloquin, Oregon, USA.
The scale for the Live steam train is means number of inches of scale per foot. A good example would be a 1:8 scale train would mean 1-1/2 scale and so on.
Gauge means the distance between the rails. Live steam trains that you ride have gauges usually between 2-1/2" to 15".

- My husband is an enthusiast also. Although he no longer has a steam locomotive, he operates his train on tracks from South Texas to Central Missouri. It is a wonderful hobby.

- I served aboard a steam ship (Actually 2), got the Tee shirst, but a steam train, now that's a horse of a different color. Maybe I'll add riding a steam train to the bucket list. Thanks for sharing!
