The World's Biggest Train Set

[NorthernBloke]

This is the world's biggest train set which covers 1,150 square metres (12,380 square feet), features almost six miles of track and is still not complete

It is expected to be finished in 2014, when the train set will cover more than 1,800 square metres (19, 376 sq ft) and feature almost 13 miles of track, by which time detailed models of parts of France, Italy and the UK will have been added.

In total the set has taken 500,000 hours and more than £8 million to put together, the vast majority of which has come from ticket sales



I read about it here this morning
