I was invited yesterday to a gathering of modelrailroaders ( all Maerkliners) at a place which is regarded as the Mecca among all Maerkliners in Turkey.
The layout is still under construction and is " all around the loft " , a massive 300 square meters with an entrance to the loft from the middle.
An Esu Ecos command station via PC is controlling 25 trains in one go.
Below are some photos that I have taken :
The Main station area along with fiddle yard which is still under construction, left portion ; Faller car system:
The mountains which has a restaurant tower which rotates of which the customers climb up by a teleferique system ( Brawa):
Army Barracks:
Ice running as it should be:
East area, still under construction:
..and the bonus of the night ; a Maerklin Franco Crosti 42, insider edition in photo gray. ( a beautiful ugly beast )
It was truely a lovely night, and being able to see the capability of Maerklin, if it weren't that middle third rail I would have converted long ago...
Cheers
