Pelle Soeborg's cornfield
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, April 5, 2017 9:31 AM

At the suggestion of another forum member, I went back through MR and found 2 articles done by Cody Grivno on cornfields.  One the first was Sept 2006 and the second was Dec 2015.  2006 used Busch cornfield material.  2015 was Bluford Shops cornfield.  

Neither appear to be the same product that appears in the May 2017 issue of MR center full page photo.   It doesnt look like JTT either.  Maybe Faller?  Im just looking through the Walthers catalog at this point, but neither the print photos or online photos of the product show as much detail as that photo.

I was impressed with the corn field as well!  I wonder if it started as the new Walthers field and was Detailed.   Regardless, it was very well done.

After some lookin' around, I think it might be Busch, kit 1202 ?  It sure looks good, what ever he used.  The field, just before the old barn, looks great on the cab ride.

Pelle's cornfield is made from Busch pieces. He put a lot of effort into painting and arranging them.
