I have some friends that just auctioned of their farming equipment. It looks like a lot of the equipment that was auctioned off on their endeavor. I forwarded the link to the husband. I thought he'd be interested in seeing their work. Quite impressive.

Great video. I'd like to talk to those guys and take some notes on a number of their scenery techniques. The corn crops were especially impressive. Thanks for sharing. Dan

The only thing missing is the grain train.

They have a fortune in vehicles, as my guess is that many of them cost as much or more than some top of the line rolling stock models.

Thanks for sharing,

Yeah, the variety of 1/64 scale vehicles is amazing, and the prices run the gamut too. Ertl tractors, and a lot of stuff found at walmart are pretty reasonable, but some of those tractor trailers and other items look pretty high end. Very nicely presented.
