I'm not sure if this is in the wrong topic but look at there incredible detail on these model railways:

Amazing the realism that can be achieved. And it looks like on a tiny scale too.

I think its HO scale or maybe even more. Not that tiny, but no less impressive. IT looks real in some pictures!

Foliage - stunning.
But the amount of buildings, little touches like the hoses and scrap pile... so much to fascinate and admire. A superb diorama. I am guessing from the number of names mentioned at the end that this was a combined effort. None the less commendable for that.

:shock:
It is so well-crafted I thought the foliage and the trees were real; I cannot add any more complements besides that...

Train modelers can be absolutely amazing sources of info. They really have been doing this for so long.

I found that if you go up to the main page there are some links to good detail pages on the site. For example:

My great uncle used to be model train collector, always amazed me the detail of the layouts.
There's so many accessories for model trains, even taking scale into account, that we can use for modelling, probably much better detail than GW's terrain. :)
