Miniature Wunderland

I've been meaning to write this up for some time now; so here is.

In Hamburg I visited the worlds largest model railroad. The layout covers 4000sq Meters. With around 9000 meters of track; and approx 250000 LED lights. Every 45 mins the layout goes through one day cycle.

Before I arrived I called ahead to schedule a English behind-the-scenes tour. upon arrival I found at that I was the only person on the tour. My tour guide was the person charge of the American section of the layout and also the author of the article on the layout that appeared in the Model Railroader Magazine a couple years ago. I would highly recommend taking the tour; you get to see a number of stuff that the general public miss out (like almost all of the ~35 "lovers" hidden through-out, or the superheros)

Well this about ends my writing part. From on it'll be pictures with captions. Here is the complete album:
