Huge Small Gauge Railroad Near Eureka

[Mark1955]

Anyone know who's minature railroad this is just northeast of Tintic Junction near Eureka? Its huge and has to be one of the largest in the country. I believe it's 7 1/2" gauge. I saw a guy with small train cars on a trailer one day heading east out of Eureka so I suspected something was in the area and I finally found it. The photo shows the engine house. Go to the coordinates and expand out. This thing is really huge... probably a couple hundred acres. There are a couple of "Live Steam Clubs" in Utah but I am not sure if it's private or related to one of the clubs... Would appreciate any info anyone here has on it. Thanks!
Coordinates are: 39°55'58.48"N 112° 9'39.04"W

Thanks Russ! That may help me out since I know the train guy up here in Farmington.

I have passed by this and wondered what it is for.

I've seen that track every time I drive by there, I'd love to see more of it, my son would go nuts to see a train on there.

You can always take him to the S&S Short Line in Farmington. They are closed for the season now but re-open in May.
