History

The Denver and Pacific Falls Railway is located "way out west" somewhere. Our small branch of the D&PF meets the mainline at Red Mountain Yard, connecting the towns of Orange Hill, Appleton, and Mandarin with Red Mountain, Red Mountain Yard, and the Eder Farm. The railroad is a dog bone about 150 feet in circumference with a two track yard on the south end.

The Railway contains a combination of scratch built, kit, and pre-assembled structures. Power is through code 250 aluminum rails, provided by a Bridgewerks 10 amp power supply
