Welcome Aboard!

Welcome to the Grand Central Railroad Park, one of the largest outdoor model railroads in the Phoenix area. We are located at The Grand in Surprise Arizona.



We are a designated Interest Group in The Grand. Our model railroad group began in 2004 with ten members. The Grand Community Association provided the space for the train layout and those original members laid the first few hundred feet of track. Now we have 40 members and the layout has developed to include approximately 1800 feet of track, landscaping, bridges and many buildings.



WE ARE BACK ON TRACK
for THE 2024 - 2025 SEASON

 

Our regular operating times are
9 am - 11 am Thursday, Friday & Saturday
(weather permitting)

 

Looking forward to seeing everyone back again to enjoy another great railroading season.
