Northlandz, Model railroad museum in Raritan Township, United States
The museum contains over eight miles of train tracks winding through mountains, bridges, and landscapes featuring more than 4,000 miniature buildings.
Bruce Williams Zaccagnino started building miniature scenes in his basement in 1972, leading to the museum's establishment and opening in 1996.
The museum exhibits include detailed reproductions of American landscapes, from industrial zones to rural communities, representing different aspects of railroad heritage.
Visitors need approximately three hours to complete the one-mile indoor walking tour through multiple levels of continuous miniature displays.
The railroad display required enough lumber to construct 42 full-size houses and several hundred tons of plaster to create three-story-high mountain formations.
