- Sandy Ridge & Clear Lake Railway is a private, 7+1⁄2 in (190.5 mm) gauge ridable miniature railway located on 29 acres (120,000 m2) of mostly wooded hills near Battle Creek in the state of Michigan. The railroad was built and owned by John "Jack" Ozanich, who was a retired locomotive engineer of the Grand Trunk Railroad. Jack died on May 29, 2020. The railroad runs through rolling landscape, with grades of up to 5.2% on the mainline and 75ft minimum radius curves. The branch lines have switch backs and even steeper grades to change elevation rapidly. If the mainline is extended to completion, the railroad should have approximately 7,000 feet (2,100 m) of track. The railroad does not form a loop, since the ends of the line are separated vertically by nearly 90 feet (27 m). The rolling stock used on the railroad is modelled in 3+3⁄4 inches per foot (5:16) scale to resemble the 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge locomotives, freight cars, coaches, and cabooses used by the Sandy River & Rangeley Lakes Railroad in the state of Maine.
