Thread: My OO Scale Model Train set Build.

Yes, very important to the real thing, not so much for a model. The physics of ballast laying doesn’t translate well in small scale but I have seen an O gauge ballast layer.

Just reading again that NR website & found it incredible that the Ballast Train is a 1/2 mile long by the time all the different units are coupled together. Crikey!

No wonder Rail Travel costs a King's Ransom in the UK.

When I was visiting family some years ago, I stumbled across the Miniature Wonderland in Hamburg.
Even my wife was impressed.
I'll try to copy the link in, here goes:
Modellbahn, Modelleisenbahn Hamburg | Miniatur Wunderland Hamburg

Here's a picture:

I think there were three or four floors of exhibits with dioramas and entire cities, some extending between floors to emulate the Alpine territory of Northern Europe.
I'm guessing you don't have the space to emulate this.

I imagine you'll have seen this already, but it's worth sharing here. Luke's attention to detail is astonishing.

From what I have witnessed, just give Gav 5 minutes to get his woodworking tools out.

Only seen it on ewetoob. Did you see the massive computer setup that runs it?

Saw that in my feed this morning but only just watched it - he’s brilliant at what he does. 👍

He does a Cyclone fence better than Cyclone. Blows me away.
