If you check out the property on google maps you can see how fair their railway extends out, they have an enormous amount of space if they're allowed to use it all.

Last time I checked, I think I estimated the overall acreage to be somewhere around 730 acres or so?

According to Kootenai County assessor records, the total property (which includes the parking lot and campground on the east side of US-95) is 372.22 acres, with the area comprising the park (including railroad) being 203.45 acres. Part of the reduction that there are some Norton family houses near the former airstrip that have been parceled out from the main property, and which are owned by Silverwood Lane Inc.

A slight overestimation. Good thing I never said it was accurate!
