| The front yard of Ken and Liz Donahoe's home is filled with all sorts of railroadiana - crossing gates, signals, signs, horns, and switch mechanisms. And there is a large and well landscaped garden railroad as well. It is built to last - the roadbed is solid concrete! Ken and Liz have hosted railroad open houses since 1971, and plan to host many more. Here is the 2006 schedule: May 17 6-8 PM June 3 1-4 PM July 19 6-8 PM August 16 6-8 PM September 20 6-8 PM November 4 1-4 PM |
