** In a decision by the railroad's owner, the Boulder Creek and Western has ceased operations at this location. Financial issues played a roll in the decision, as well as college in 2009. At this time, there is possibility of a small layout being built, but that is still up in the air. Check back on this page for updates.

As of September 2008, track has been torn up and has been sold.
