Im glad they are getting the kudos they deserve. I remember when they first debuted that video sometime last year.  I'll never get tired watching this, plus it is fun trying to find all the easter eggs in it.

The modeling is wonderful! The storyline grabbed me. I laughed and wowed at the same time. And it was cute to boot! Five stars.

Yes, I love that vid as well. I downloaded a high-res copy of it when it came out last year (there was a thread about it on the Wire at the time).

But... the layout I would build, if I had the time, is really... this.

You?
A roundy-round guy?  :o

Yeah, but you'd do it in ZZZ scale so it could fit in a trunk, and it'd still have better running trains and more amazing details than the rest of us mortals  :ashat:

In Z scale, he could probably use directed air streams and make the planes actually fly... :)

And he'd even make a way to fit all T scale locos with DCC...  :trollface: :trollface: :trollface:
