    Needs a Metrolink train wreck about to happen in L.A. - complete with stoned Engineer, texting away.

    If both get married/divorced, do Exes keep it?

    Anyone who has spent that much money on a train set doesn't have to worry about getting married.

    Is that funny business at 1:33 in the 1st vid or just some guy changing his pants with his bare hiney in the air?

    For those into the hobby is it really possible for only 2 guys to put something as massive as this together in only 9 years? Just seems like you'd need at least 10 people working 'round the clock - I recall the vid of the guy who made a 1:8 scale working replica of a Ferrari and it took him 3 years to just draw up the plans, and several more to build individual parts and finally assemble everything.

    Yeah, if they didn't work and only built train stuff all day. It also depends on how much customization they did to the pieces, buildings and such. I could design a layout that big and put track on it in a month or 2. It's the buildings/etc that can take forever.
