An exercise in modelling perspective

Not Garden Railways but I think this is worth looking at by those who like a railway modelling challenge.
This is a Dutch layout named B.A. Bodil which I videoed at Warley this year. Take a look, it is a brilliantly clever model.

Also their website
www.msgValkenswaard.nl
has an English version running and there you will find technical details of how they achieved the results on the model.

Nice.

That's one of the best executed railway forced perspective scenes I've erm... seen. How deep was the whole thing?

About 3 maybe 4 feet. I went to Warley on Sunday. This was far and away my favourite exhibit.

Hi,
if you take a look on their website there are some views showing the size of the exhibit, but it is about as deep as it is wide which isn't very big.
