Midwest Central Railroad

The Midwest Central Railroad is a 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge heritage railroad operating within the confines of Mount Pleasant, Iowa's McMillan Park, site of the Midwest Old Thresher's Reunion.

The mainline track is a 1 mile (1.6 kilometer) loop with traffic moving in a clockwise direction regulated by an electrically signaled block system.

The flat cars range from fully restored (D&RGW Nos 6216 and 6206) to extremely rough.

Many years ago, several East Broad Top coal hoppers were purchased and transported to Mt.

During the off-season, equipment can be seen moving about as needed for repairs between the South Station, Old Threhser's Museum "B," and the main shop.
