Taunton dad had too many model trains. So he opened a biz for all ages

Taunton resident Joseph Moreton had a problem: he had too many model trains. "We have a really small home" and have "four kiddos," his wife Gabrielle Moreton said. "He would always bring out the trains with the kids, and you would always have to take them and put them away because there's no space at all." "One day he's like, you know what? I need a space so we can keep them out all the time," she said. "Then he's like, even better yet, I would love for the public to come and enjoy it as well." That idea became Mass Model Railroad Club at 52 Main St. in downtown Taunton . The business houses Joseph's collection of model trains for the public to drive, and also allows people to bring their own trains in to drive on the tracks inside the facility. Joseph said that the business appeals to anyone "from 5 years old up until death, really." Here's what we know. Who is the new Miss Taunton? Meet Miss Taunton and Miss Taunton's Teen 2027.
