Gordon the Big Engine sighting: Royal Melbourne Show

Somehow I am not surprised he’s a C-38.

Elsewhere were miniature choo-choo trains, zoom-rides, and toy airplanes whirling about a pole.

Happy #MiniatureMonday

All aboard the Train to Wichita! The crank-to-read miniature book in a model train written and designed by Peter and Donna Thomas that is.

This book, comprised of 3 color-illustrated scrolls in the rear compartment of an altered model train was originally designed for an exhibit at the Wichita Art Museum in Wichita, Kansas. One scroll tells the story of the arrival of the train in Wichita written by Peter, while the two others contain lyrics to the songs “The Old Chisholm Trail” and “On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe.” All three scrolls were hand illustrated by Donna. Special Collections and Archives is happy to own one of only twenty functioning copies.

The miniature train in Setagaya Park, Tokyo, based on the D51 272 locomotive that's on display in the park. The small train used to have a steam locomotive, but it became too expensive to maintain and was changed to a battery-driven electric model.

This is the artist Chris Burden’s Metropolis II from 2011. It is on display at Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) courtesy of the Nicolas Berggruen Charitable Foundation, and is located on the ground floor of the Broad building. I have posted it because this work simply brings me joy, and seems to do so for those of every age and background. If I can spread a little joy, then I am pleased to do so.

Model Trains

[49436]

Working on a new, huge piece of terrain for mini games - 4 train cars in the middle of a heist. And obviously no train is complete without a shitton of graffiti, so...

The tender car is almost done, the engine about 30%. Wife and i have been playing nobody saves the world, hence nobody and the rat getting place of pride 😁

it's easy to look down on shanty town but look closer.

- walkable

- access to mass transit

- plenty of old spare tires

- lots of free art displays
