About this Exploration:

 

C & R Railroad invites you to a quaint community tucked inside a 57- foot mountain range in the McDill "Huck" Boyd Center where intrigued visitor can watch animated O-scale trains chug through the village and arrive at Union Station. 

This private collection was started in 1966 by Bill Clarke. Bill has been a lifelong resident of Phillips County and the town photographer for over 50 years.  Three decades after starting his collection, it has grown to 94 engines, 170 cars, 34 cabooses and 137 railroad lanterns which are housed in a room featuring special lighting with day and nighttime effects. More than 1,200 feet of track wind through Clarke's C&R Railroad. 

For the railroad enthusiast out there, be sure and plan a visit to the C& R Railroad.

For a private viewing of this train community, contact Huck Boyd Center at 785.543.5535.  This train museum is open during the Center's regular business hours, Monday-Friday 9 a.m.-5 p.m.  Available by appointment on weekends.
