We were lucky enough to get a tour from Watermelon, the guy that started the place. He is an encyclopedia of railroad knowledge and made the tour interesting and worth the trip. They have their own rail yard full of cars and equipment that you can climb on and all over.

For a smaller venue there is not a bad seat in the house. The seats are comfortable and they have brought some great acts in.
