I was looking around the forums this morning and noticed something neat. I saw this thread by RichBohlman, and thought this would be a great example of the potential for crossover between the card modelers and model railroaders. In that thread, and some of his other threads which I'll list below, I think there's a lot of inspiration for anyone building a layout to consider card models.

A few of his other threads:

Our own Robin (see http://forum.zealot.com/f267/) would have identified himself as a model railroader first, but he definitely knew how to make the most of the card stock he had on hand - cereal boxes, corregated card, paper, or what-have-you.

I think many of the card modellers may be inspired by his work as well...!

Nice crossover (or is that X-over...?) Maybe there should be a corresponding thread called "A Layout to go with your Card Models" ;) :D :thumb:

Several of us built the scalescenes.com card freight house back in the spring. That thread can be found here. I definitely think there is room for materials other than styrene and wood in this hobby and need to spend some time looking around the card modellers site for inspiration.
