Hello Friends

I would like to show the progress of the Swamp Diorama build by my Friend Stefan Foerg from Germany. I've allready a small Diorama from him and the Quality of his work is outstanding.
As you Guys know, I love to take pictures of my Rolling Stock on different Dioramas but I was always limited by the size of the Diorama. The goal of the new Diorama was to show more then one or two Engines with a Car or two behind :-) so I decide to ask Stefan to build me a 2.4 Meter (8 Foot) Diorama with lots of Details and for great Pictures. So let's start:

Friends, I've finally found the time to pick up the Swamp Diorama at Stefan's House. It was a 450 mile Trip from Switzerland to Germany but well worth. Stefan has a very nice Family and I'm happy that my Family was also with me, so our wifes could talk (hours and hours) and our Kids could play outside :-) Stay tuned for many pictures soon.

Heya Jr59, its Craig from the Model Train Forum, glad to see your stuff again, very cool to see the CN Sweep, been wanting to do one of those.

Guys, when we first saw his stuff, he did not show the build as he did here, there were a lot of guys that did not believe it was models, not only is the diorama excellently executed, but the modeling and the photography are excellent as well! cant get enough of these pics, they are inspiring.

Plus...they are excellent choices in railroads too!

Thanks for posting these, and tell Stefan his work really makes me want to go work on the layout. One question, is that an electric cup for flocking grass?

Craig
