Scale Zero weekend in Zutphen
This weekend the Dutch Scale Zero foundation had its annual gathering in Zutphen. A few small layouts with nice scenery, a long central loop with many trains and almost all 2-rail zero trains.
Fortunately, in a corner there was toy train enthusiast who collected 3 rail zero: Märklin, Buco, Elletren and Lionel.
Surprisingly many really made their own trains, from brass and tin or from plastic, wood and even from cardboard. Honestly, I was a bit surprised to hear that the beautiful 1200 locomotive was cardboard based, but from the outside one can not see it. Here are a few pictures to catch the spirit.
And on top of all, I found an Scale 0 building kit from IHC, # 300-100, Big 2 Stall engine house. That will make my layout look better. I wonder when this kit was made. According to the manufacturer it is no longer available. Anyway, it is complete and has never been assembled yet. So, about time to do so.
