Stefan - I watch a lot of model railway videos, and seen plenty at shows too. So I know what I am looking at. Many models are well made, many videos are good, with sound effects, realistic scenery and lovely trains... but your beautiful model with extra CGI effects of smoke and even moving tiny figures (!) is amazing. I have never seen anything as polished or professional as this. Well done - truly remarkable.
The opening scene (0:26 - 1:07) is absolutely spell-binding in it's realism. Trackside filming in 'real life' couldn't be any more convincing ... amazing models and scenery ! More please.
Ian McFarlane - I've spotted the dogs, the rabbit, the giraffe, the guy with the bad back on the platform, the inspector with the ill-fitting jacket and one more human - the man standing by his car near an open length of track (level-crossing), but I'm darnned if I've seen the cat !! Edit ... Just spotted cat on back of truck (11:01) !!!
Such deep focus is very unusual. The Lumix wide angle lens and plenty of light makes it perfect. And the linking of each sound recording to the passing train (or linking the train to the recorded sound?) is magical, not forgetting the 'greenscreen' shots of the Inspector. Even the matted-in smoke, black when the loco labours and translucent when it has momentum . . . Thank you!
I never use to comment on others work. But I must say this is the best film taken on ANY model railroad ever!! Very good job on camera, light, force perspective etc.
Wonderful ! It's hard to tell if the locos and rolling stock are 'full-size narrow guage' or miniature models. The surrounding scenery adds to the dilemma. Some of the 'humans' - and the animals are very real with the help of some CGI trickery. Amazing layout, filming and editing. This video gets FIVE STARS from me.
One of the most amazing things I've seen after Central Los Andes, an Argentinian shelf layout I've found thanks to YT suggested videos, like this one. The great world of model rairoads...
Beautifully done! I love the live-action inserts and sound effects. Best of all, though, is the near perfect DEPTH OF FIELD, which usually is the kiss of death in miniature shots you used to see in movies. WELL DONE!
I keep coming back to this video for the sheer beauty and realism of the layout - one of the best I have seen. But as farm-yard animals go, I do wonder about the giraffe ... and what about the rhino on the back of the truck ??!!
AMAZING APPARENTLY AMAZING. VERY REALISTIC IN EVERY WAY. VERY INSPIRING. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE HARD WORK. I LOVE YOU FOR THE VIDEO. IT HELPS GET THROUGH MY DAY. I LOVE YOU WORK. GOD BLESS YOU PLEASE BE SAFE.
Wonderful model railroad. The scenery is beautiful and the filming is amazing. What is the size of the layout and how many switches are there? Thanks for sharing.
@@kristianstrid6738 I guessed Belgium because in the beginning, the Citroen 2CV is a Belgian -built car. Note the trim on the rear wings- only Belgian 2CVs had that. Watching this again, it's the best layout I've ever seen!
@@kristianstrid6738 A friend owns about 6 of them- I never know, he's always buying and selling them. I own two Traction Avants myself and am glad to see one on this layout.
Forget the inspector!
That rabbit deserves an Oscar!
Beautiful. Gorgeous!

Martin Roberts Thank you! Nice to hear that you like it :-)
"This is Art". Both model and the filming.
Bumpa Berra Thank You :-)
Very clever bits of inserted live action, the guy in the hat, the dogs and the cat. Very impressive.

And the smoke of the train, the chickens, the guy with the pipe, three diff. dogs and the cat on the truck

Ror Thank you for your kind words. Deep focus demands lot of light to work...

Just amazing how you bring this to live. Beautiful layout, very good filmed and actually stunning special effects making it a real world

Not just because of the giraffe.... this is a fantastic film.... well done and of course the model rail road is exceptional too!
Not only a great modeller but als a great video editor!
I wish I had these special effects skills! It really brings a model railway to life.
Gratulálok, csodálatos modellvasút, fantasztikus kisfilm!
I have never ever seen such reality on any layout before.
Yes. Wow is exactly the right description. An entire new type of video for model railroads. I love it.
Wow! Well done! I've never seen better!
Thank You! Don’t miss the bonus scene and the behind the scene video.
absolutely wonderful, superb modelling, storytelling and filming. more please !
Beautifully done! I love the live-action inserts and sound effects. Best of all, though, is the near perfect DEPTH OF FIELD, which usually is the kiss of death in miniature shots you used to see in movies. WELL DONE!
Matt Brewster
Thank You! Lots of extra lights and a small aperture... :-)
WOW a combination of the real thing, a model and CGI. its very hard to tell which is which! Exelent, top marks.
This is clever and VERY entertaining !!
Hi from UK 10/10 Brilliant.....Bravo!!!!!
Thank You! :-)
Fantastic modelling and filming, so realistic, love it.
Enjoyed the dogs …. and the giraffe chewing it’ cud … the inspector can go home now …

Very clever indeed! I was looking round on one shot for the moving human figure and then realised I had missed the giraffe!
I had a wolf at first, he was going for the sheep but it didn’t look nice. Then it was empty in that corner, so a giraffe...
A big WOW! 🤩 My regards to the author of this little masterpiece!
Brilliant. What more is there to say?
Magnifique réseau particulièrement réaliste et la qualité de la vidéo et des trucages sont formidables. Bravo à vous et merci pour le partage.

Väldigt fint vilket arbete ni har gjort
Imponerade film, bra hur du lagt så fint ljud till filmen och kul men herr Holm.
Kul detaljer, hönor m.m. 👍
Wonderful model railroad. The scenery is beautiful and the filming is amazing. What is the size of the layout and how many switches are there? Thanks for sharing.
Now I have counted in the 4x7 meter large room.
7 standard switches and 19 narrow switches, all hand-built on site.
T
Wonderful.
Fantastisk bana!!
Who played the inspector ... was it you, Mr. Holmberg ?
Magnifique merci
Sensacional Maravilhoso Parabens !!!
Wonderfull
There's even a giraffe!
Helt fantastiskt! Ett modellbygge i mästerklass.
Är det i Hasslaröd vid Osby som det utspelar sig i?
Who gave this a thumbs down???? Are they blind and crazy???
Imponerande!
Beautiful! I'm going to guess that this layout is set in Belgium- right?
Hasslaröd is a small town in scania in the extreme south of Sweden.

@@lawrencelewis8105 Lawrence, I agree! There are some 2CV in Sweden too. Amazing car.

2:36 A human being..? How did you manage that?;-)
I think this is real, you are just pretending it's a model. Brilliant in every way.
😊💪👍
What is the scale?
Scale 0. 1:45
Dupontarnas kvaddade 2CV? 😁
Stefan Holmberg haha ja jo det är en bra bit att åka i en sån där 😂
Computer generated?
No no 98% real!!
Glömde hälsa från Hanoi. Ute på en sex månader lång resa, då får man tid att se mycket saker på TH-cam.
Fint MODELBYG Kompliment
Just a tad creepy.
I changed my thumbs up to a thumbs down due to the black smoke.
That guy with the hat dosn't look real.
