<p>[quote user="Kyle"]</p> <p>My favorite would have to be the miniature wonderland in Germany. It is amazing, they have working ships that operate in real water on the layout , and the water level raises and lowers to simulate the tide. The also go through a day/night cycle every 30 minutes, they have working cars (tons of them), and an operating airport. They also have "fires" around the layout that fire trucks tespind to. If you every visit Europe, be sure to visit Hamburg to see it.</p> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>... drop me a note if you do!</p> <p>Miniatur Wunderland is a fantastic show layout, but it would not be on my list of favorites. I have seen so much great model work presented here, which certainly surpasses Miniatur Wunderland in terms of craftsmanship, detail and atmosphere. Just to list a few, Ray´s S.L.O.W RR and Garry´s Heartland Division are among them. Not to forget McFunkeyMonkey´s wonderful Freemo N scale modules.</p> <p>However, my personal choice of "best layout in the world" is Marcel Ackle´s "Rymenzburger Chnollebahn". It´s a small G scale switching layout with a wealth of detail you won´t be able to tell it´s a model.</p> <p>Just a few pics:</p> <p><a href="http://www.buntbahn.de/fotos/data/6068/24Diema21-vi.jpg"><img src="http://www.buntbahn.de/fotos/data/6068/24Diema21-vi.jpg" alt=" " border="0" /></a></p> <p><a href="http://www.buntbahn.de/fotos/data/686/6Marcel_FFM4BB0001.JPG"><img src="http://www.buntbahn.de/fotos/data/686/6Marcel_FFM4BB0001.JPG" alt=" " border="0" /></a></p> <p><a href="http://www.feldbahn-modellbau.ch/album/d/1311-1/cb09001.jpg"><img src="http://www.feldbahn-modellbau.ch/album/d/1311-1/cb09001.jpg" alt=" " border="0" /></a></p> <p>... and a little video:</p> <p>[View:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfdPXHmBIeU]</p>
