1-1/2" Scale Model Railroading

National Railroad Museum
Green Bay, Wisconsin
August, 2002

While vacationing with my parents in Wisconsin, we decided to make the 3 1/2 hour drive up to Green Bay to visit the National Railroad Museum. I have wanted to visit the museum for quite some time since it is the home of several very nice steam locomotives including Big Boy #4017. The drive up and back was very nice as the weather was clear and the company was good. The museum has a very nice collection of locomotives and cars. Most are under cover and some actually are in an enormous air-conditioned building. I got lots of picture (over 150). Some of them are shown below.
