Sunset Hill's Illiana Train Society Building Program.
Unlike typical railroad G-scale modelers who construct their layout from the ground up, the Society's Building Committee chose to collect donations to employ outside construction firms to move the “Bull Moose Line” venue from the Samuelson Greenhouse property to Sunset Hill Farm Park.
The Society Building Commettie: Lance Molenda, Owen Todd, George Sarver, Dave Ransom , Dave Casey, Gary Barneko
The move began in October 14,
2017
when
the Building Committee Members staked out the parameters of the
propoed I
T S Garden
layout
on
the east
side of
Sunset Hill Farm
above the septic
field.
In May of 2018 the Building Committee initiated a ground breaking ceremony
celebrating the move of the "Bull Moose Line"
from the Samuelson Greenhouse property
to Sunset Hill Farm.
The Sunset Hill Farm County Park ground maintenance crew
removed sod for
the "Bull Moose Line" layout placement in July of 2018.

Unfortunately little progress has been made.
A stripped patch of bare dirt above the septic field on the east side of Sunset Hill Farm Park
is the culmination of fourteen months of diligent work by the
members of the Building Committee.

Now the first winter snow of 2018 covers the septic field awaiting the eventual spring thaw to see what the members
of the Society Building Committee
have in mind for
2019.
The I.T. S. relocation committee is working on the move to Sunset Hill.
