The church along the Swiss railway
LA CHIESA LUNGO LA FERROVIA SVIZZERA
We build landscape modules , inspired on a Swiss landscape.
A single track will come out of a tunnel on the left hand side, run over a bridge, pass a ruine and will leave again through a tunnel on the right hand side.
Overhead catenary is the SBB-CFF -FFS style but we also have DB catenary.
We will cover periods II through VI with rolling stock.
I wil try to explain how the layout was build.
The watermill - the village -the curve
This is a new part we will start to build as from the summer of 2020 on.
First of all, a good planning is needed.
The FS Ale 840 and 883
and Le 640
These are build by a friend of us. They are hand made, only 4 pieces will be build.
The evolution can be followed on this page.
