While driving to Osoyoos, we saw the sign for the Desert Model Railroad. We decided to take a look. When we found out it cost $7.50 each, my wife said "I don't want to pay to see a model railroad". After I convinced her to go, she was like a little kid at an amusement park. She kept finding fun little details and beckoning me over to look. After spending a couple of hours we departed, with every intention to return again. We have told all of our family and friends, that they should visit, especially if they have little ones.
Thank you for coming to visit us after you saw our sign. Very often we hear the same argument, that the women don’t want to go see our display, as they don’t think they will get any enjoyment out of paying the entrance fee. Afterwards, most often they can’t praise it enough and as your wife experienced there are so many details and fun things to find, as our display is so much more than just trains. The fact that you recommended us to family and friends is very much appreciated.
We certainly look forward to seeing you and your wife again soon.
so many things to see in mini scale: my 4 yr. pointed out: look that little boy on the beach has the floating wings...and my 7 yr. old daughter spotted two wedding couple exiting the church. Excellent work, even the bus stopped on his stop.... Nice museum for big or small.
Thank you so much for coming to visit us at the model railroad.
It never seizes to amaze me what little gems the kids can find on our lay-out and most often even the adults don’t see them. We actually have 8 weddings taking place, so our fantasy world is a busy place. So next time you come look for all the weddings!
The bus is definitely a big hit with young and old and because there is a very thin wire embedded in the road and a magnet in the bus, it looks like the bus is driving without any guidance. Very cool!
We hope to see you and your family again.
We are a mature couple who have visited other railroad model museums, but this one blew us away. So much detail, so many settings.. The work that has gone into this is mind boggling. For example, the 20000 human figures were all hand painted! I think you really have to be an adult to truly appreciate this place.
I am so glad that our model railroad could impress and blow you away, when you compare us to other places you have visited.
It is true that the kids maybe can’t grasp the intricate work, we have done, but they can absolutely have their creativity activated. We sell the little hand painted people in our showroom and for me it is so gratifying to hear about the little scenes they are going to go home and create and what materials they are going to use to achieve their vision.
We hope to see you again.
I cannot really say enough about the enjoyment that a place like this can bring to all ages. We went with a group that had kids (5-9 years) and all ages of adults. Everyone was amazed. I'm sure you could come back over and over and see new things each time.
The display is top notch, if you have never seen a large, high quality model train setup then you will be absolutely amazed. Not a single detail has been missed.
This is one attraction that I can strongly recommend. It is great on a hot or cool day. If you are just driving through use this as your pit stop and I am certain you will not be disapointed.
The fee for admission is modest and worth every penny.
I am so glad that your whole group in various ages had such a wonderful time visiting us here at the model railroad. There are a lot at little details to see and we hear from people all the time that they discover something new every time they come to visit. Mind you too, that we do change the scenery all the time, so that we can stay current – for instance we just recently finished adding a Zip-line.
We thank you very much for your very strong recommendation and for sharing all your wonderful pictures from our place.
We try very hard to keep the admission at affordable rates for everybody and I’m glad you noticed that.
We sure hope to see you and your group again soon.
The Osoyoos Desert Model Railroad is fun for young and young at heart. Incredible detail, everywhere you look there is a mini story being told. Recommended for a rainy day!
We thank you for coming to visit us and even on a not rainy day it is a lot of fun to see the model railroad display. When my daughter and I create all the scenes, we make up little stories to help us reflect the mini actions happening and we have so much fun doing that.
We hope to see you again.
So much more than just a train model display, we come to see it every time we are in Osoyoos. There is a whole miniature world created. The creativity and the imagination involved is mind blowing.
Thank you very much for being a faithful visitor every time you come to Osoyoos and for coming to visit the model railroad.
We are so happy that you appreciate our miniature world and we get lots of comments from kids wanting to live in our fantasy world. That’s the ultimate stamp of approval for us.
We sure hope to see you next time you come to Osoyoos.
