According to the StOOmgroep Turnhout website:
""St00mgroep Turnhout vzw" is an association, driven by amateurs, engaged in the construction, maintenance, care, expansion, improvement and operation of a miniature railway for passenger transport, more specifically for 5" and 7¼" track.

The association stimulates the interest and the construction of technical models of vehicles -working or not- with any kind of propulsion, with a special emphasis on railway vehicles.

The mini trains run for young and old from the first Sunday of April to the last weekend of September, every Saturday, Sunday and public holiday, from 1 to 6 p.m."
