And people call me a train nut and ask why would I play with models :thwap:

And all I'm working on are a couple of shelves and at some point in the future a couple of 4x2.5 foot modules :AOK:

That very layout was being discussed over at the Model Railroad Layout Design Special Interest Group :whatever:

There is a rather large layout in NJ - Northlandz in Flemington.

Wow is right!

How do they get the cars, trucks, and planes to move? Are there magnets under the roads and runways?

Also, were the ships in actual water? Was the ship that was moving on rails under the surface?

Very cool.

A lawyer buddy of mine in Tacoma (last name of Duenholter, and you know where his family is from) is way into this stuff. You can spend big $$ on the model railway stuff. He has told me of visits to this place, and he is into the european model trains.
