Narrow Gauge Convention 2007

Within a few minutes of arriving at the hotel in Portland, Maine, USA, one of mates Dave Revellia was unloading one of two containers that stored an incredible “Fn3”, 1:20 scale, modular layout....

The photos I captured over two days, may give some indication of the high quality of modeling that can be achieved in this scale... This is modeling at another level.

Sundance Central will influence many modelers around the world, over the coming years, with it’s scratch built structures, highly detailed mini scenes, tall timber, high trestle bridges, cascading water falls, large scale - beautifully weathered motive power and rolling stock, hand painted life like figures and animals, large scale modular system and finally , “light weight” construction.

Congratulations to the guys who produced this amazing piece of art.

“This is, as good as it gets”
