Displays for the Railroadshow in Switzerland

[JR59]

My friend John Cubbin made some small Displays for me so I can present my Engine and Cars more professionell on the upcoming US Railroad Convention in Switzerland. He's work is so awesome! I'll will show also some of my bigger Dioramas, Karin and Lionels Buildings, Álvaro's Cars and some of my AZL/MTL/FR Collection.

Yes, John is a master scenerymaker, there is no question about that.

Look at those tree roots! Awesome.

wow, awesome detail

Amazing modeling.  I need to stop by here more often...  The tree roots are indeed a nice touch!  Better get the MOW crew out there with some cribbing, though...

John does great work.  I can almost smell the soil on the tree root photo.

What's being used for the roots?  Twine of some sort?

Pretty sure John uses real roots. Pull up some weeds and at some point you'll likely find some tiny root structures that mimic those of trees, at a smaller scale.

Hope he got rid of the seeds  ;D

It's a cool effect but where there are roots, aren't there usually trees too?

Thanks for the tip David.  What about those trees?  Commercial?  The bark looks really good.

The trees could have been cut down, or died. Roots will hang around for quite a while.

That I don't know. But I agree they're really good.
