Wow thats really cool. I have been building WWII diaromas for quite some time and this was one of the many fustrating things about 1/35 scale, is the lack of trains and planes. I don't understand why it took them so long to come out with a train model in this scale. Well it looks cool.

FYI one of the Lionel Electric train gauges (I think H or O) is 1/48 scale, so you can build a diaroma with train and 1/48th scale plane, unfortunately you cant find too many figures in this scale.

Now they need to make a P51 or a Stuka in 1/35 scale.

Well, I think the figures are about 3 inches, so the gun must be close to 2 - 3 feet!
