Pacific Northwest Live Steamers



In 1954 Harry Harvey had a dream. He wanted to provide a park that people could go picnic watch, ride and learn about trains.

Today that dream is still alive at Shady Dell Train Park, Originally founded in 1954, Today it is one of the first railroads of this size on the west coast, it has grown from 1 to 4 acres, Because we are a train park and not an amusement park no one is ever sure what private trains will be running on Sunday "Run-Days".

No fee is collected at the entrance or to ride the trains, but all donations are graciously accepted
