Steam in Los Gatos DVD TSG

Since 1970, the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad has been carrying passengers through the picturesque scenery of Oak Meadow Park and Vasona Park in Los Gatos, California.

The railroad operates on approximately one mile of 18 inch gauge track. In 2006, the railroad had three operational locomotives on its roster, one steam engine and two diesels.

The railroad started when Southern Pacific engineer William "Billy" Jones found the No. 2 steam engine on the docks in San Francisco in 1939, destined to become scrap metal. Billy Jones purchased the engine and restored it to operation, running it on weekends at his ranch in Los Gatos.

After Billy's death in 1968, the not-for-profit Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad Corporation purchased the equipment and moved it to its current location. Join us for a look at this amazing miniature railroad in the summer of 2006!

I have a collection of 7.5 gauge videos, have over 20!, so I saw this in larger scale and thought it would be neat to compare, yes it is great, a lot of fun, a neat track, and even a cab ride, the only downside is way!! too much bell ringing, and the volume level is up and then down, you will be using your volume level on your remote a lot! but very happy with it, and will lend to my other club members, howie.
