Anybody know the Mojave guy !

[Anonymous]

I can't find that one newer edition of the MODEL RAILROADER in my room,
& I was just wondering "Who was the guy who did that Mojave layout again?"
I've seen the real place a million times & his layout is almost identical.
How did he get, or make those buildings, & how did he do that dirt, "again ".

He is in Denmark, across the big water.

The 'guy' was Pele Soeborg of Denmark. He scratch built the buildings from photographs. The dirt was applied in the conventional way with paint and white glue. He uses a little coarser sand in the first layer on the hills to 'hold' the ground cover. The dirt was real from his trip to the Mojave, if I read the article right.
Here's a link to his website: soeeborg.dk/hobby.htm
