Waterloo Central Railway is a heritage railway offering historic passenger train rides between Northfield Drive in Waterloo, the St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market, the village of St. Jacobs and the town of Elmira.
We are proudly operated by the Southern Ontario Locomotive Restoration Society (SOLRS), a not-for-profit, registered charitable organization. All ticket proceeds go to supporting operations and restoration programs that our volunteers complete at our restoration and maintenance facility in St. Jacobs.
Stop by St. Jacobs to visit the Model Railway!
One of North America’s largest model railway layouts, the St. Jacobs and Aberfoyle Model Railway is an O scale (1/4″ = 12″) model railway depicting southern Ontario in the last 1950s.
Located in the beautiful downtown core of St. Jacobs, the St. Jacobs and Aberfoyle Model Railway moved to this little village in 2013 after a long history in Aberfoyle.
Much time has been invested into creating such a remarkable model railway, with many talented volunteers contributing to our success over the years!
