This is № 522 of Pilentum's model railroad videos. Model train layouts in 1 gauge (1/32 scale) are always something special. The dimensions of the locomotives and the noises are a great adventure. Therefore, in this video we discover an amazing Märklin model railroad layout that was built by Arnold who lives in the Netherlands. Arnold loves model railroading and he loves watching his steam locos circulating on his gauge 1 layout which has a size of 12.5 x 5.5 meters.

This is № 511 of Pilentum's model railroad videos. Sometimes model rail layouts are designed according to historical patterns. Usually the focus is on long-forgotten railway lines or on old locomotive sheds (“abandoned premises”), which are exactly modelled on the basis of old postcards and books. The members of the model railroading club “Modelspoorclub Het Spoor” from Sint-Niklaas in Belgium have taken up this challenge and constructed a high-precision replica of the Belgian railway line 127 and Braives railway station.

Model Cars and Trucks - Self-Driving Miniature Vehicles and Moving Automobiles in HO Scale

This is № 498 of Pilentum's model railroad videos. For years, model railroading or railway modelling has been experiencing a magnificent expansion due to scale model cars that drive automatically on model rail layouts. The trucks we see in this video were built in HO scale. Currently, there are three well-known systems that are used on many European miniature worlds. The newest system is called “Viessmann CarMotion”, the worldwide known system is called “Faller Car System Digital” and the very individual system is called “DC-Car System” by Claus Ilchmann.
