Title: Model Train & Transport Museum Photos from Recent Tasmanian Events
Post by: Dazzler on August 11, 2013, 09:24:45

A bit of a mixture .. Some from the Launceston Model Show a month or so ago and the rest from this Weekends Hobart Model Show which was held at the Glenorchy Transport Museum.. Hence the full size equipment..

My Wife Trish is a HO model Train Fan (will post some pix of her fairly large layout when the latest version is closer to completion) Many of these photos were taken by me to give her some scenery ideas...

Thanks Dazz.  There are some great setups in that collection.  One of the reasons I am glad I have boys, I can get them toys I can play with.

All excellent :goodjob:


However, for me, this is by far the best as it's like a complete suburb encapsulated by multiple tracks. Minimal use of plastic looking airy fairy stone, bush and tree rubbish:

You should have said "so" instead of "but", that would relate the dolls to your daughters. The "but" to me implied that the two items weren't related. Therefore, oh shoot, I'll shut up now...

Great pics

Thanks

The qaulity of the full size trains were real rubbish though compared to your York Museum .. hopefully our health will hold up so we can come over for a look in the next couple of years...

We have a couple of well restored trains at the Don Railway only about 4 kms from our place though  :goodjob:

Fantastic pics, thanks for sharing. The Canada Science and Technology museum has a mighty collection of trains as well. Some of the bigger pieces are oil powered steam locomotives and coal locomotives that are screw fed from the bunker (automatic stoking). Great big things they are.

If your over that way and are into trains, do check it out. Well worth a visit.
