Hello all,
actually, I'm working on a part of a modular layout from our local modeltrain-club.
As we started to build this layout many years ago, we've tried to rebuild a abondend line from our region. The branchline from Rohrbach to Klingenmuenster is only 9.5km long. The layout is designed to present it on shows or conventions. Normaly, we've shown our layout in the weeks around X-mas.
In the spring 2005, we've got two aerial view of the end of the line and compared this with our layout. There were so many differences to the original, so I've startes to rebuild the station. I'm trying to get the old orignial back with so many details that I can realize.
The first step was to build all needed buildings along the station including stationbuilding (not finised yet), enginehouse, goodssheed and some other buidlings. Some time ago, I've started a own thread how I creat buildings.

Here are some pictures of my work done so far:
At first an Overall-view.
The finised part of the first modul.
Looks good... dosen't?
Sone details between the tracks. The silver shining stripes are covering the drawing wires to the turnouts (not functional ).
In the left corner... The old aerial view... And in the right corner... My version in H0-scale.
