Jurg, I can't wait for the day you get your whole layout put together with alll your peices! You have some awsome buildings, rolling stock and loco's. Keep posting, I really enjoy looking at your pictures.
Excellent pictures Jurg. Do you commission Lionel on what you want, or you just buy what ever pieces he makes. I guess it really doesn't matter. Everything seems to fit perfectly.
Thank you for your kind words. I work togehter with Lionel, building the City of Rosetown but the designs are all from Lionel. I only ask for Highschool or a Firestation and he makes it for me. Sometimes I also buy some of his work on Epray. The next big Building will be the Rosetown Trainstation. I've send Lionel some pictures from the Modesto Trainstation and now he try to build that for me. There is still no Hotel nor Houses for the residence. When the City is finished it will fit on 2 Modules. The total lenght will be 176cm and the deep is 40cm. Rosetown is a tribute to my wife Rose. On another Module I will build Georgetown (Jürg means George in english). This will be a City in the fifties or sixties with all the Buildings from Microstructures. This brass Buildings I can do it by myself. I've allready build and paint over 30.
Jürg, your diorama is awesome! Congratulations to Lionel and yourself's work! But please would you tell us if your diorama is working? Ie does it allows to run trains and to perform some switching operations for example? Dominique
Dominique, the Diorama that John Cubbin build for me is just for displaying my Collection and taking some pictures (also for my website). The City of Rosetown will be on 2 Modules (Total 8) and fully functional when they are finished. I'll keep everybody up about the progress.
