One Of The Best and Most Detailed Model Railroad Layout in the World 4K UHD

THE SUNDANCE CENTRAL RAILROAD - The Sundance was formed in January 2004 with the goal to create a more detailed and uniformly scened, large-scale traveling layout. This 1:20.3 scale modular model railroad consisting of forty modules for a layout size of 45 feet by 45 feet. The railroad consists of 400 feet of hand laid code 250 aluminum rails that are hand spiked with individual tie plates onto wood ties with a total of 16 turn-outs.

The modular was built by a group of seven model train enthusiasts. This diverse group is made up of people who have a passion of early narrow gauge steam locomotives to modern day standard gauge diesels.

The purpose for forming this modular group was to provide the public a realistic look at model railroading in a large-scale format. The modules are highly detailed from the scratch built supporting structures and buildings down to the surrounding scenery. The trains and rolling stock that will be running on these modules will also be highly detailed and weathered.

Thinking. Always have wondered why I enjoy model trains so much -- and now I see it. Here is a portrayal of a community, each going about the day, no suggestion of war, crime, violence of any kind. The noise of a train can be absolutely peaceful. AND birds! Thank you very much. . .

The fact that you do not have to run the trains and the dioramas still tell a story is magnificent. Beautiful craftsmanship and attention to detail is wonderful. A true work of art.👍👍

10 out of ten for the layout - and the cameraman. It's a rare to see perfect videos like this.

Can almost smell the creasote tar coming off them tracks? Beautiful layout!

Great layout depicting steam era railroad with lots of fantastic true mountain type buildings and scenery! I also thought that the photography work in producing this video was top notch, nothing worse than viewing this type of video on utube when it's so blurred & out of focus that it's not worth your time.

Thanks & God Bless,

A true work of American Art. For me, it was like stepping into a time machine. I grew up during the 40's and 50's in a small logging community in northern Idaho. (Troy, Idaho) Your moving diorama had everything except the smell of pine and cedar. I remembered them nonetheless. I also loved the bird songs. This piece of Americana should be declared a national treasure. Obviously, worth millions. Congratulation... all around!!!

The detail is SICK. Best I've ever seen. Very inspiring. I love that gauge and the speed of the trains is in scale. Wow.

[billmorris]

The detail is awesome, so real looking. It lives up to the title of being one the best layouts in the world.

Your attention to detail is off the charts. I would love to see some video shot with natural lighting to mimic real sunlight at dusk. Just a thought.This is simply beautiful!

With that large of a scale, one can see that minor & finer details are easier to do than smaller scales. Thanks for posting.

This just blew my be looking at this many many for the

[lesliefulton]

Love that idea of those celestial roof's on the box cabs. I got a couple of future projects involving boxcabs and will replicate that look, nice job, and the little animated men unloading the coal gondola, G scale gives you so much room to add things.

I ve never seen a diesel locomotive like the yellow one.... Very particular.... The details are astonishing!!!

[joewoodchuck]

Beautiful work. I love the imaginitive clouds and lightning. The only thing I dislike is that it's at the wrong house.

[joseantonioteixeira]

The attention and care to detail is excellent, and the locomotive with its clean rails is the centerpiece, very good indeed.

The love to details reminds me to the master John Allan
