The Museum Rambolitrain Rambouillet (train and model museum) is located in the heart of the city, just steps from the Church of St. Lubin. It was founded by Jacques Visbecq, a pateint collector to whom the museum is not only most of the 4000 exhibits, but also the building that houses them, and Alain Baldi, a passionate and gifted model railroader. They are named Marklin, Bing, American Flyer, and Carette, firms are moving towards an industrial manufacturing quality. The achievements are closer to reality, the lines move, the game becomes sophisticated gear, accessories multiply: stations, signs, sheds, bridges with semaphores, tunnels, all hand painted with an amazing sense of color.
