Built for Operators Who Bring the Train to the Guests

Every compact train for sale looks good in the showroom. The real test happens after delivery: the loading, the drive, and the setup. For a rental business, every hour spent loading is an hour the train is not running.

How many events could you serve in a weekend if loading took fifteen minutes? And what would a second train add to that?

The TJ25 pulls two or three C12 coaches. At 45 inches wide and 75 inches high, it fits event grounds, festival paths, and holiday displays. It is available as a turnkey package, loaded in its own road-legal trailer and ready to tow to the first event.

ConfigurationAdults and childrenAdults only
TJ25 + 2 C12 coaches24 (16 adults + 8 children)16
TJ25 + 3 C12 coaches36 (24 adults + 12 children)24

Each C12 coach has four benches: three facing forward and one facing backward. Each bench seats two adults and one child, or two adults. The train runs up to three coaches. There is no wheelchair option on this model.

Where the TJ25 Operates Best

  • Outdoor use: The gasoline engine is built for outdoor operation.
  • Level grounds: Maximum grade 7%. The coaches have no brakes, so the route should be level.
  • Paved and grass: Up to three coaches on both surfaces.
  • Tight turns: A U-turn within 20 feet with three coaches.
  • Private grounds only: The train is not built for public roads. The trailer is road legal; the train is not.
