        Even the DH scrolling banner above looks like a choo-choo-train to me now...

              Only in my dreamland.... :-)

              3 reasons I can't do this:
              1) My flat too small.
              2) My kids will tear it down thinking it is their toy..they simply love chu chu trains
              3) My building skill sux...

              But I definitely love to watch the trains going round and round, and envy those foreigners who have space in their homes to do a complete train simulation....
              huh

                  Agree agree....I am thinking of how to tackle these headaches. Tot of doing it at the little balcony garden cos there are already some plants like cactus and ferns, and can plant the cactus along the railroad... . To keep my kid away, I plan to raise the platform to table height (ya he could still climb on top with a chair... )

                  I am planning to go for the N scale (1/160), like those in the pics above. The model at this scale is actually quite small, with track width (guage) measuring only 9mm and locomotives/cars around 4.5 inch.

                  Seems like no need to build much, model scenery objects are readily available,
                  Hobbylinc carries 16 model-power n scale model railroad buildings at discounts up to 19%.


                  Very tempting already....for now, I just have to admire DH scrolling banner..

                    ...wow S$3K...must be somekind super realistic model, definitely beyond my budget. Anyway, for me, it's too early to buy anything at the moment...still studying the feasibility of having such a setup at home.

                      I do remember seeing quite a few local shops selling model trains but can't exactly remember where. These shops I came across don't sell R/C.. just model trains and air-fix...
                      huh
