wow cool mate...tear in eye..I used to have a wicked trainset my Pop gave to me...electric with all the stuff....I remember back in 78' going to a place called Katherine in the Northern Territory (Australia) and went to I think was a YMCA kinda place...and the dude there had a train set that filled (foggy memory) around about a 10m x 10m shed man. It was the gas!! oh my it was YOOJ and everything was to scale etc...he built it himself...now thats a memory that will NEVER fade. Good luck mate

It's looking good! That's a lot of detail work, and I like how you've put the detail into Thomas the Tank engine and his face :-) !

Finally i finished the project. Initially i want it to be more crowded with many buildings with a lot of details but i forgot about my very slow pc so i had to make it more simple. The all process was fun from the beginning to the end, it was a challenge for me and also a pleasure, thank you and good luck. user added image
