You know it would be really cool to build a helical around the cake so the train would kind of climb the cake. And then maybe a long descent back down to the table level. Just a thought.

The you can recycle them on your layout, sweet. Only thing better would be to get you sister-in-law's to be parents to pay for it.

Would like to see some pictures of those centerpieces. [:D]

Best of luck

Here is a first, at least for me. I have been model railroading for about 10 years. My wife appreciates my hobby, but doesn't find it particularly "useful"...until now. My brother-in-law (age 32, confirmed bachelor, hunting, fishing and outdoor enthusiast ad-nausium) is getting married. For his rehearsal dinner his fiance gave him open reign. He chose a hunting/fishing theme, color scheme--camoflage. My wife asked me to create n-scale hunting scenes as certerpieces for all of the tables (obviously at least one will have some track running across the corner). I never thought I would have the opportunity to use my model railroading skills to create wedding decor, but then you never know. Let me know what you think of my new venture and tell us about any unusual modeling applications you have been involved with over the years.

Here are some pics of the finished product. be sure to see all 3 pages and all 5 scenes.
