Ontraxs 2012 Railroad Museum Utrecht The Netherlands

Postby Janbouli » Mon Mar 05, 2012 8:36 pm

I took almost 400 pics at Ontraxs, I will show some of them over the next few days, at the end of the week you can see them all at http://www.amerikaanse-treinen.nl/website/fotoalbums?album=5&gallery=16.

I went to Utrecht with my youngest brother and my 6 year old nephew Luke, I think with a little effort from uncle Jan we have a modelrailroader for the future :D

Image

The first pictures are of a friends layout, Nolans Warf, it is in On3 , i'll start off with the pic I am taking while being snapped by the newspaper man, his camera is in the right upper corner :)
Image

All structures , trees, scenery , crates, lobster traps, boat and some of the rolling stock are scratchbuilt. I like his use of colors, he is a friend of Troels Kirk and I think that shows. His everyday job does help also , he's a wooden furniture carpenter.

Excellent photos! :-bd :-bd
Many thanks for sharing them with us.
Look forward to your fotoalbums gallery. But we know how much time it takes, so we're patient.

Your nephew looks like he already has an intense interest! :D :D

Jan,

Nice pictures of Martin's diorama. I've followed his work on RR Line and he has dome some great modeling in On30.
Look forward to your other pictures.
