One of the highlights of the layout is the Lehigh Valley Gorge. The layout's scenery is complete with over 3000 trees. During the annual open house there will be a continuous parade of trains. Thomas the Tank engines and cars will make a special appearance. On Saturday there will also be a model railroad flee market. The event is not handicapped accessible as the layout is in the basement of the First Universalist Church. Masks are optional.
