Wales West Light Railway & Train
& Garden Lovers RV Resort
A short scenic ride from Gulf Shores / Orange Beach and something fun to do when
you have had too much sun ! See some pretty Alabama rural countryside, pecan orchards,
cross some scenic rivers, and spot a few 'Snuffy Smith' looking kudzu covered
housetrailers or shacks as well, on your way to Silverhill!
Wales West is a unique
concept centering around a modern R. V. resort, fully equipped with all the latest
facilities to earn a five W rating from Woodalls. It is a true train & garden lovers
R.V. resort. In an effort to share their love for trains & gardens with everyone, the
owners have also created a 13 acre train and garden family park which surrounds the Wales
West RV resort and is open to the general public. The RV resort is open all year.
They also do a lot of parties, school field trips and other programs for local folks,
summer families and winter snowbirds. Lots going on out there.....

A 2ft. gauge steam
powered Welsh style narrow gauge railway circles the resort. Also on site is a mile long
7.5" gauge grand scale track winding through the woods and gardens.
You are invited to bring your own trains to
the park, or simply just come and enjoy riding on theirs. If you like trains & gardens
this wonderful steam train is sure to delight you. It winds through the park on a mile
long track that passes by woodlands, pastures, a lake and many Welsh Victorian style
buildings. There are 2 main gauges of railway/railroad at WalesWest, the main 2' gauge
system & the 7.5" Grand Scale line. Both systems are located within the park,
which surrounds the WalesWest RV resort. The two tracks border each other in many places.
