AMAZING AND EXTRAORDINARY - TINIEST MODEL TRAIN EVER MADE?



SMN is awestruck:
This video shows an amazingly small oval-track rail layout - built in ultra-tiny microscale to fit inside a Z-gauge model shop window... Watch and enjoy.

Plus, the daily SMN Festive Slideshow. We have 20 items of scale gorgeousness on show today, though object number one, a cyber-pup, is more art than scale model. It's a steampunk creation, made up of various scrap components including a 1950s-era retro toaster. We like Fido's smile, though trust he doesn't bite, as metal teeth are liable to be sharp...  























And here's Mr J with the Incredible Hulk, his cuddly companion. Actually, that's not quite true - his friend Liz achieves a higher friendship-factor in a nanosecond, and doesn't have the Hulk's roaring temper, either! Mind you, that green complexion's kinda cute...
