@rexman92 Yeh in needs some oil, it was built in the early 1940's

I've actually been there.

[Tcostello105]

You have that's cool, yeh the guy has a nice set-up

Where did you find the rolling stock? This appears to be something from a 1940's, or 50's amusement park, which is very good. You also must own a substantial amount of property. How many miles is this? How long did it take to build? It would be swell if you could find some wayside flange greasers to cut down on the noise on the curves. It would also save wear on the rail. Great set-up, I must say. You are now the pride of the neighborhood! Thanks for sharing.

This is not my backyard railway but i talked to the guy who owned it and he said he got the train from an amusement park he did not say which park but he said it was a while ago. Thanks for the comment

Evidently someone doesn't know about squeaky wheels. Only heard squeaks on turns which would cause flanges to rub side of rails. Where about in Ma.? Go there every weekend never heard of Norfork/ Would like to visit if possible with grand kids.
