Z scale T-Trak-Z end cap module

Z scale has come a long way. One of things I absolutely love about Z scale is how you can really showcase scenery in a small space. With that concept in mind, I have been working on a T-Trak-Z end-cap module. This module is based on rural Ohio. I have been creating these modules to showcase products we have developed, with the thought of taking them to shows to display and run trains. But eventually they will be integrated into a larger layout. Key features of this module include Rokuhan track AZL SD40-2 with Ortners, Archistories/Ztrack kits, JTT trees, Preiser and Noch figures, and more. There is even a detail from David K Smith's NZT line.

Also if anyone is interested, I have a video where I reflect on the different scenes around the module. This gives you a better idea of the details that have gone into this piece.

I think the impressive part of this, besides the obvious niceness of the scene and the modeling behind it, is the size of what we’re looking at.  It’s not always readily apparent how truly small Z is.

Going to have access to a CPKC provided laser cutter soon. So may whip up a few to really spread my modelling time properly thin.

Great point on the size of Z. I usually put a dime in my photos so folks get an idea of how small this really is. You can see the dime in the video. But to put things into perspective...
