  • Model train layouts, that are called "City Limits", are presenting cities or industrial areas characterized by an incredibly high quality of perfection and reality. And, also this model railway layout built by German modellers in HO scale is pefectly weathered. The diarama presents North Minneapolis in Upper Midwest of the United States, and its scenes of industrial sites. And there is the York Rail, a scene from the eastern United States, its local industries in the city of York in Pennsylvania. Really ingenious Weathering. Please, take a look at www.pilentum.de for more information and for many, many photos.

    Dull coat and weathering really make a layout come to life. I spray everything with thin India ink. Really adds depth to scenery and shadows pop.

    The weathering detail this layout displays is what separates it from most of the rest.
    My eyes never get tired.
    Very well done!

    Nice detail on the rolling stock. So many of these lay outs put so much effort into the diorama, then run trains that look like they are plastic toys. Nice work.

    This video is amazing and one of the best I have seen. So much detail but one thing has been overlooked and that is the semi trailer doesn't get parked on asphalt as it will punch holes through it.

      thanks! to be honest, it's those comments I received over the last 15 years which resulted in the work you see. Without constructiove critism, what could be done better or what is not actually realistic, I wouldn't be able to improve the skills and get it to that level. So thanks again to you David Barrera and everybody not shy of speaking up to when they spot something :D

    Nice video! Excellent layout! One constructive criticism: the CSX locomotive and the Sullivan Scrap Holyoke MA gondola seem out of place. The CSX railroad only extends as far west as Chicago and St Louis; the gondola would deliver scrap steel to a steel mill and Minneapolis is not known for having steel mills.

      Depends :D The 4 sections of York Rail are each 90cm x 40cm, the Minneapolis parts are all 50cm deep and mostly 100cm long. The way to interconnect two different types is due to an adopted FREMO NAI norm.

    Funny some of the most detailed, impressive, realistic HO scale North American layouts are modeled by Europeans? This one is flawless. Just look at Model Railroader magazine and you will see a couple of Europeans who are at the top of the ladder in modeling American rail, and this is right there with them.

    • @AbelG8781

    Ok,time for some further infos....the "layout" actually was composed togehter for the convention out of two home layouts.As "plentum2 mentioned one part was 'North Minneapolis" build by me and is based on an industrial area along the Mississippi .Part two is "York Rail" created by Denis A.Tne SOO/CP units the gons are belonging to my section and were all weathered and detail by me...the hoppers with the outstanding graffiti are Denis'work.Unfortunaly his great detailed York Rail CF7s were not in evidence in this movie....The CSX GP was only guest unit.....
