Absolutely stunning Martin! you should send this into one of the magazines as its such a beauty! the detail bits like your scratch built grader and such are such wonderful little side stories!

 

Kudos sir!

I have just clicked my way through the pictures of this stunning micro layout and my lower jaw dropped south when I saw the amount of love that went into detailing it.

 

Now I´ve got to see a doctor because I can´t get it up again!

Hi guys! This baby is finished! Tried to take some pictures yesterday but the light didn't helped, so I have to take some better ones. In the meanwhile, this are the ones that are acceptable at least.

When I get the better ones I'll post them.

And, I would really like to thank all of you guys for the guidance and encouragement on  making this layout. All your works are inspiring and helpful and I hope this could be as inspiring for others as yours for me.

Amazing piece of work! That weathering... superb! Those overhead wires are amazing too, really adds to the feel of the layout! Especially love that bus terminal with that driver ready for his next assignment!

 

Can I just suggest one minor point to this already superb layout? Perhaps changing the bus to a Showa era bus would be most fitting to this~  :)

Like the recent bus collection 20 http://www.tomytec.co.jp/diocolle/lineup/bus/buscolle20.html number 9, 10, 11 or 12 would be nice ~

Yes! The bus and the milk truck were the only things "out of time". As you pointed out, was watching those same buses. The number 10 to be precise can be painted as one of Niigata Kotsu with minor changes. Only thing is, is there any way of getting that bus alone? I can of course replace it later if found :)

Hi Martin, well I do have the number 124 of collection 11: http://www.tomytec.co.jp/diocolle/lineup/bus/buscolle11.html  which is Niigata Kotsu, slightly more 'showa era'... or if you are quite good in painting, I think I have an empty unpainted 'showa era' bus which I can send to you...

 

But I'm curious, what was that Niigata Kotsu bus that is in your layout now? Cant seem to find it in the regular roster... must be one of those 限定品 limited edition bus ~  :P

Wow! If you have an unpainted bus would be awesome! The Isuzu Elga is from this set http://www.tomytec.co.jp/diocolle/lineup/bus/bus_set002.html. Also have another on backorder from hlj and the upcoming set of the Moha 14 and Isuzu Elga set. I haven't find any other old models of  Niigata Kotsu from Tomytec O_o

Thank you so much!
