TO THE TRAINS!

My father began his model train extravaganza in the Fall of 1997. It is an incredibly elaborate and involved project taking up an entire attic room with another room being used as a studio. The setting for the model is Germany or Austria in the 1950's and features include a small village, a city, industries, several bridges, a tram, and thousands of ordinary people.

The purpose of this site is to maintain a pictoral record of the development of the project. Click on the time periods below to see the chronology of the ongoing construction.
