Three favorite things. For quite a while I worked for the owner of this company LGB. This endeavor has it all.

That was a fantastic feat for the "Miniaturs Wunderland" crew! Setting a world Record during the pandemic while they were closed to the public was at least a great chance to build a new but temporary railroad snaking all among their incredible normal layout in order to set the record.

A few of us VW nuts who also appreciate model RR'ing made the trek north to see Winiaturs Wunderland in the wharf area of Hamburg, Germany during a visit to Europe for the Hessisch-Oldendorf and EBI Volkswagen festival weekends several years ago. That is model railroading heaven! And there are HO scale VWs moving and parked all over the layout which runs through many room in two huge warehouses. You don't even have to be a model RR fan to really appreciate and enjoy what you'll see there. If you ever get a chance, treat yourself! It is simply amazing and unbelievable all at the same time!

Check out their many videos on Youtube!

Wunderland layout is one of the best in the world. I know this should have gone in Toys thread but the Split Window Logo bus sealed it for me. Train Nuts are on track.
