So more specifically what is your hobby? Model trains, miniature/micro film production/recording or both? It's all very amazing. That layout is just incredible!!!

Only if one of those two Firebirds is a 1969 TA Convertible. There looked to be close to a million dollars of equipment.

I think there is more than two Firebirds in that setup!! The dedicated warehouse alone......
But knowing the cost of architectural models....some of the 6' x 6' ones we did for developments would cost as much as $50,000!
There's millions of $ there....

Bjorn Sefeldt is correct. This is owned by a private train hobbyist, but he has turned his hobby in to a museum. This is the biggest train set in Scandinavia. I Found a YouTube clip from a German museum and that is amazing. (I have a Marklin HO scale set on a 2m x 1m plywood in the basement, waiting for my grandchildren.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ACkmg3Y64_s
