Nerdy Entertainment

I... am a model railroader... I build model railroads... and drive model trains... so what, ya wanna fight about it? haha

My friend and I hit "Supertrain" back in February. This was one of the most impressive layouts. Not as much for the overwhelming number of trains operating independently around the layout (though that was cool), but instead for the detail put in to the surroundings. We stumbled across this scene late in the day and were thoroughly impressed. You will see the murder victim laying bleeding in the park, the camera crews (with appropriately labelled vehicles and cameras) trying to push past the police, the ambulance painted to fit with the Edmonton health region (the layout's home), and the CSI investigators looking over the scene. All done at a scale where those people are not much more than 1cm tall, the ambulance is about 2cm tall.

Very cool. Posted by Picasa
