OMG that is without a doubt the most incredible layout I have ever seen! I mean the bridge work etc, is just jaw dropping amazing. Just shows that with enough time and money (and ROOM!)anything is possible. I just applaud anyone who is willing and can put this much time and resource into the hobby, it's just plain awesome. Thanks a bunch for sharing the video Nick. Ok, back to work on your engines.. Raymond

Nick, watch it, I think the horse has a battery in it... repeated impacts could cause an explosion. This is what can happen if you blow a lithium battery ion pack and why that one fellow some time ago on the Aristo forums nearly had is house burn to the ground because his train batteries caugh on fire. Another reason I don't want them in my trains." border=0> http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2006/11/13/exploding-laptop-battery-video/ Real life examples: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuNSzs679Sw

If that's not an inspiring layout, I don't know what is! Truly spectacular! You folks can argue over the track power vs. battery power nonsense to your hearts content; the sheer artistry of the layout makes all that petty stuff pale in comparison. Besides, it sure looks like things were running great in that video, no matter what the power source.

It is indeed an awesome layout, but it's a pity the scenery isn't to scale. Imagine being a passenger in one of his trains and looking out the window at the size of those flowers! The bees must be enormous! Mark
