- The history of railways, steam engines and electric locomotives in Switzerland offer endless possibilities for rail transport modelling. Therefore model railroading or railway modelling is a popular hobby in Switzerland. Of course, there are also magnificent model train exhibitions. Probably one of the most precise model railway layouts in the world is located in the Kaeserberg rail museum in Switzerland.
Inside this Swiss miniature world, there are two kilometres of tracks in HO scale (1/87 scale) on three levels and more than 120 model train sets. The railway structure is built with the highest precision, for example the extraordinarily detailed catenary or the superbly weathered tracks, etc. Discover the “Chemins de fer du Kaeserberg” while watching this cab ride video.

The quality with which those tracks are laid (including the ballast, the very long straight lines, the gentle curves, the points and of course the catenary cables) is absolutely awesome and goes a long way to procure the hyper-realism of this amazing layout. Kudos to its builders!
Yes, I was really enjoying the slight superelevation! Of course having a huge hall helps, you can build your curves exactly to scale with flexible track, but aligning this precisely is still an art.
I don’t think it’s only that. The sense of space evident in this model is very important too. On so many model railways everything is crammed together - but not here. All the roads, buildings, landscape elements etc are scaled and distanced appropriately. This adds tremendously to the realism of the whole scene.
Yes but it is all out of the packet commercial products, and therefore NOT precise. Anyone with the right modelling tools can lay commercial track as seen. But how many know how to hand build track with the precise scale measurement between the rails which in British 1:76 scale is 18.83mm. (Called Proto 4). So Pendon the famous British model railway museum near Didcot UK, has a team of experts who have spent 50 years creating the most exact layout in the world. By HAND MAKING EVERYTHING. Including locos, carriages & wagons for their 1930's reproduction of the "Vale of the White Horse" layout. Every building is also an exact copy of a real life one, many being thatched. Such a model can take a year to make as real Horse hair is needed to replicate exactly the real life "Thatching" methods !!!
I had to watch this twice. The first time I was completely mesmerised by the impossibly perfect trackwork and catenary. Only when replaying the video did I manage to take in the equally impressive trackside modelling and sky effects.. Just sublime,, thank you as always!
Straightest tangents I think I’ve ever seen, and the superelevation on the curves! Outstanding track work.
As both a model railroading buff and an armchair adventurer, I fully appreciate the detail that went into this construction and the enjoyment of riding in the cab of the train. Thank you for allowing me to share this ride down the tracks.
I was at a NJ club where they were laying track and spikes by hand. It’s dedication.
Yes. It's also the "cab" view of the work. You're not helicoptering over it like other layouts.
It all looks so real. Feels like your going on train ride through the countryside, such amazing detail!!
I am at a loss for words, this model railroad is one if not the nicest I've seen on youtube and there are a lot of super talented model railroad builders out there posting videos.
Absolutely faultless and a credit to all involved especially to the construction of the catenary and track work ,I understand the time and patience that has been spent on this magnificent layout , thank you for sharing .
Unrealistic speed, starting off
@@Delta-pantages That would be the operator not the constructor.
I'm not even into model trains, but I find this video absolutely fascinating..
How the tracks are laid is beyond incredible for a model railway. Definitely a favorite among railway videos. Also - Pilentum's jingle is one of the best on UA-cam 😊
As a long time rail fan, both model & full size, & a civil engineer with decades of experience designing & managing projects on the USA Northeast Corridor, I am VERY impressed with this layout, especially the catenary. You got the smallest details right, from the pull off's, to the feeder wires, to the substations. You have more overhead heavy rail catenary on your layout than we have in the entirety of the USA (pretty much all of it on the Northeast Corridor & feeder lines).
And it really reminded me that, in Europe, rail is still considered a primary element in transportation and commerce rather than being relegated to the orphan stepchild status that we see here in the US. Brilliantly executed layout!
Wow. Unbelievable! This is truly magnificent.
The room lighting, above the layout area - is Fantastic
Das ist fantastish !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK...we have a winner! The super-elevated tracks are incredible.
That was my first thought. Super-elevated track!
How very extraordinary and beautiful. The shock a minute in of seeing these giant human in the background to the side lol there was a certain disconnect that just made them not seem real and not the railway lol, if you can achieve that then you really have achieved something very, very special. Thank you for sharing an incredible amount of hard work and skill, truly magnificent work
I was watching this and stopped to look for my ticket and realized it was only a model train! Very realistic! Thanks for sharing.
On the one hand, you know you're riding along on a model railway because you can see the ceiling lights and operators in the distance, but you become so engrossed in the detail it seems real...... and then @2:16 a GIANT looms out of nowhere and brings you back to reality! Truly awsome detailing.
My 5 year old grandson who is absolutely besotted with all trains from Steam to Electric was so mesmerized by these wonderful models....he is home schooling at the moment with me because of the muzzle mandate in Canadian schools....we watch the model train videos and then we discuss the detailed construction, the type of trains and in this particular video the landscape and the geography....so thank you for these videos they are so educational
🇨🇦🥰🇨🇦🥰🇨🇦🥰🇨🇦♥️♥️♥️♥️
Be careful, some of these videos have little models of naked people. This was my son's favorite channel, but I saw a few too many highly disturbing scenes to let him keep watching 😭
I was so taken in by the sheer awesomeness that I was actually startled by the appearance of the 'giants' at the 1:30 mark or so. I forget I was watching an in-cab ride from a model RR. Well done. Absolutely well done. thanks!
FANTASTIC. 2,16 - GULLIVER!!!... cha, cha, cha
Tak toto je super👍👍👍
Děkujeme!
Thank you so much for creating this amazing layout and for creating
the view from the front cab.
there were some minutes that i would understand if what i was watching , was real or model scale !!!!!
what a great travel and TOP work to the last detail !!
thank you for posting and greetings from Greece !
That would be the most amazing experience I have ever had.
Le réalisme des decors est stupéfiant. Quelle précision ! Quelle puissance !
Considering how precisely detailed everything is, it surprises me how the loco can accelerate away so quickly from a dead stop. It's about the only thing that ruins the otherwise splendid illusion.
And editing of the video - that ruins the "precise" immersion for me :/
As well as the lack of proper signalling, which you see all the time with these displays.
It still beats my battery operated two foot circle one..
Woow !
Che Bellooo !
Fantastikoo !
Until I saw the guy walking,I thought I was taking a ride on a real train. Excellent job.
The scenic realism is astounding. Thanks for the excellent camera work.
When you put this much effort into a project you know these people really love trains and so do I....wonderful!!!
This is a super awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hallucinant de beauté et de réalisme. Le plus beau, et de loin de tous les réseaux qu'il m'ait été de voir. Un chef-d'œuvre. Chapeau aux concepteurs et aux constructeurs !
And then, there are those, whose passion allows them to be dedicated to exacting detail ,unlimited involvement, utilizing all known techniques, imagination, applied engineering and unlimited labor & time to the final outcome, they themselves, can truly accept the title of visionary creators of the ultimate grand scheme. Precision & perfection just doesn't happen. We honor you and your skills, may you never lose them.
EXCELENT THE BEST!
This is the second video I have seen recently that is just amazing!!! The attention to detail and amount of work is off the hook!!! Well done and thanks for sharing!!!!
'The Attack of the 50 Foot Man' . Just kidding. Amazing museum quality, for sure.
True engineers, in 'both' sense of the word.
Excellent Model RR Layout.
Una enorme, preciosa, detallada y precisa maqueta ferroviaria. Casi que me sentía viajando en un tren real. Felicitaciones y muchas gracias 👍💪
Love the Hallade alignment pegs in the 6 foot. So often overlooked by many when modelling. Great!
Googled it and wow... I didn´t know these things/the Hallade method existed (maybe it´s not used in Germany?). So yeah, that´s great attention to detail.
For anyone wondering, the Hallade pegs are there to ensure that the radius stays the same thoughout the curves while building or maintaining the railway track. You can see then at 2:10 on the left or at 2:23 between the tracks.
Magique . Merveilleux !!!!!!
At some moments in the video, especially around 6:25, you would swear it was real and not just a model railway. Phenomenal work!
Wow. This is like a real cab ride. The detail is so realistic. The location of the other trains and stock is so proto-typical of the real railway. Well done and thank you for sharing.
Fantastic !
D'un réalisme époustouflant 🚂😉👍
Incredible! I can't even imagine the amount of man hours it took to build that layout!
Not to mention the cost.
The overhead line equipment is unbelievable!
No Kidding!
It's called catanary.. On the roof of the loco are the pantographs which contact it..
This is a RollerCoaster! Fantastic, congratulations! Very, very nice!
Just incredible !!!
Wspaniała makieta. Oglądałem z przyjemnością i podziwem
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed that ride especially that long switch where we crossed 4 tracks? I thought there was going to be a rear end collision for a second!
Just fabulous.
At some point i forgot that its a model and all of a sudden there are those absurd huge Humas :-) Swesome
Wonderful,amazing layout inside the Swiss minature world,the best by far I have ever seen.
Magnificent!!!
Le riprese dalla cabina sono spettacolari. Fantastico. Volontà e passione, ampiamente ripagate.
I just felt like I had a vaction. This is amazing.
Ikr?
Brilliant! Trackwork, catenary, consists of sensibly spaced passing trains, scenery, building details. One minor quibble, though, is the speed at which it attacks facing points.
The first points encountered scared the heck out of me. I agree, switching needs to be done a bit slower.
Catenary attention to detail is second to none.
Quite a few signals passed at danger as well.....
Impressive. Hard to imagine one man could accomplish as much as he did. Great video!
Una obra maestra sencillamente maravillosa. Enhorabuena!!!
Molto bene grazie Evitaeterna.-
Whooo great 👍👍👍😀
Beautiful! Thank you!
I want to see it live! As a youngster I had a considerable Märklin system. But after I left home, my mom sold it away. My idea was to develop it further, when ever possible.
Wow, I’m impressed !
Phantasmic trackage.
giants walking this world!
The overhead cables are a work of art on their own.
Amazing fantastic.
Una maravilla, una pasada de maqueta... Qué precisión las vías...
Beautiful! Ausgezeichnet!
Oh my goodness! This is wonderful, amazing, fantastic... Congratulations 👍🏿
This layout is impressive, I love it! 🙋
wow! its a work of art.
Браво! Макет, как «живой»! Так и хочется сесть в поезд и проехать по всему маршруту самому.
Ага. На 1:49 был уверен, что девица в ботфортах начнёт предлагать айлюлю господинчику в жёлтом котелке... но что-то пошло не так 😉
Super fajna jest ta makieta, fajnie by było zobaczyć ją na żywo...
thats a good lay out,
Realmente uma perfeição.. parabéns!! 👏👏👏
Excelente calidad de rodadura. Bellísima maqueta.
I love hearing the rolling sound of model trains
Should investigate subwoofers for sound less like "toy trains " . Real trains are heavy , creating a deep low rumble .
This is so realistic, my cat was sitting in front of me watching this and actually 'leaning into the corners.' I laughed so hard, I had to stop the video!!🤣👍 What a fantastic setup!!😁😎👍
Unbelievable
Gosh! just like a real cab ride.
Very nicely done. I'm gonna watch in my occulus and fall in love
Very beautifull layout worth checking out
👍 incredible
Absolutely awesome. Thank you.
Outstanding work Gentlemen! I am amazed!
I am a train 🚆and I approve this video
Pretty nice.what a great ride. Awesome.
My grandfather had a model railway and the trains always toppled over on the corners.
Many of you viewers may find my comment silly but in spite of all the dedication to detail which goes into the building of these beautiful scale models, it always disappoints me to watch them travel and that is due to the inaccurate speed scale...they always travel too fast for the scale to be maintained. That being cleared off my chest, the rest is absolutely perfect! Absolutely gorgeous!
Absolutely amazing !! 👍😊💕
Breathtaking. Completely brilliant.
WOW!
Hanno inclinato i binari in curva come nella realtà: più di così! Grazie!
omg! the catenary work..... well done!
Потрясающе!
Спасибо!
superb...................
The catenary attention to detail... impressive
Another great video of a truly, great layout.
To me, by far the best way to appreciate a great model train layout is from the cab view.
Thank you very much.
I feel bad for you, your numbers were really climbing and then Covid-19 hit and obviously you could not film much for a while.
Amazingly lifelike! Pretty funny a couple times going around a curve and it looks like giants are invading.
Super widok, uwielbiam oglądać nowe miejsca 😘
A u mnie spacer po mieście 😊
Pozdrawiam serdecznie z Warszawy Polska 🇵🇱😘
Wontherfull Excelent
