Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - eightyeightfan1 - 10-03-2012 While checking on jhocks link to 1/87th Vehicles website, I decided to look more into the gallery. I came across this gem: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.1-87vehicles.org/photo532/hobby_shop_marklin.php">http://www.1-87vehicles.org/photo532/ho ... arklin.php</a><!-- m --> Im jealous. Some nice work there. Re: Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - Ralph - 10-03-2012 Wow! The interior work is amazing! Re: Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - Schraddel - 10-04-2012 Oh yeah! This remembers me to my own childhood in the 1960's when i pressed my nose flat onto the shop window looking to the stuff were the dreams are made of. In Germany Märklin plays the role which Lionel has in the US. The builder has a very nice work done to capture the spirit of the mid 1960's. The colour code for boxes were: light blue: Märklin rolling stock red: Märklin acessories green: Märklin 3-Rails yellow: Faller kits of miniature houses, bottle brush trees and coloured sawdust Lutz Re: Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - ezdays - 10-04-2012 Yes, it's always fun to see such amazing detail and wished you could come close to doing that. Thank you kind sir for the link. Re: Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - Sumpter250 - 10-04-2012 Hmmmmmmm............ :o Maybe I'll just model the curtains in the "tour ship" closed.

No problem, my wife made some. Re: Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - Brakie - 10-04-2012 That is some fantastic modeling. When I was a kid my Dad and I went to a hobby shop very similar to that..I recall the shop was small and the fella had to get your purchase from the back room since everything out front was for display.I can still recall the the guy was short ,wore a white shirt with neck tie and always had a cigar in his mouth. Re: Sorry...But You Have To Check This Out - ezdays - 10-04-2012 Got just one problem with this shop, those kits the sell have got to be a bear to assemble.
