Piet Brijs - Model railroad tour part nine
The small village
25-07-2023 Updated scenery.
The sideline goes from Neuffen back to Bonn.
After Bonn the train enters a tunnel. Climbs a spiral (helix), leaves the tunnel
and reaches the highest level of the lay-out.
Passes a small village (the highest point of the tracks), a busy farm and ends in Baden Baden.
Picture 1
The brancheline from Baden to Bonn passes this village.
The white church in the village is one of my very first buildings, it maybe 40 years old. Perhaps not state of the art, but I'm used to it.
It is still in the Faller collection!
The trains don't stop anymore in the village (special services excepted).

Replaced some very old spruce trees on my lay-out. The new ones are very tall (19,5 cm max.) and look very good.
The passing BR64 looks tiny under the trees, as it should.

Changed the environment of the farm.
