Ultimate Spiral Loop – Legendary Logging Railway Layout Complete (HOe 1:87, 9mm)

This mini layout base is inspired by the spiral loop seen on the Sasaozawa work line of the legendary Kiso Forest Railway—ever since I saw it in the book "Memories of the Kiso Forest Railway," I dreamed of building one myself.
Designed and constructed under the supervision of a civil engineer, this HOe narrow gauge layout features a realistic timber trestle bridge—hand-shaped from individual square basswood beams rather than round dowels.
The result is a compact but highly detailed showcase of classic Japanese logging railway design, built with passion and precision.

And it really helps me with my recovery
From my brain tumour and stroke
As I try to get back to my modelling
I mention my illness
So that you know who is watching and why
This became
A project for me

Ik ben zeer onder de indruk van deze layout en hoe het gemaakt is.
Prachtig gewoon.
Ik overweeg om dit na te bouwen (met uw permissie natuurlijk).
Lijkt mij fantastisch om dit na te maken.
Er zit zoveel in, je kunt er je eigen helemaal in verliezen!
