Ultimate train set

Miniatur Wunderland *** official video 2012 *** largest model railway / railroad of the world - YouTube

 

Isn't this the one that has some "amorous" folks hidden in the bushes in one part of it?

Talk about HO scale...

 

I think it is. I saw a few non-family orientated scenes in the clip.

 

They also now have a fully functioning scale airport... There's a build log on YouTube (close to 30 episodes I think, all 10 - 15 minutes) following the progress, pitfalls, milestones and finally the grand opening. Only downside is its in German. It does have subtitles though.

Wow...... Just wow!

 

that is insane, the details are incredible everything looks so lifelike. Im really impressed with the airport, its so cool how the planes actually take off and land. really neat.

 

Yeah that is awesome. Model Railroader had an article a couple years ago on it. They showed how they set up the cars to appear to be moving on their own by using magnets. At that time I don't think they had the airport built.

 

Attention to detail is stunning, feel a German trip coming on, I love it

 

If I ever make it to Germany, I'm adding that to the list of things to see. Wow!

 

fantastic, can't even imagine how many man hours went into that.

i like the ufo, nice touch.

In the comments section under the video, it sounds like they have that covered: "There is a chained giant beneath all of this who gets out once a day and blows all over it, He is paid in klondike bars."

 

Nice, HO scale is the best right? :confused

 

Perhaps we as a community here should do something like that.
