I think he flies around in planes  :p
Might have something to do with it

Agree though, they do at first glance look like models.
Bit too real thing though in detail.

Nicely photographed.

I'm sorry, they are indeed real trains, but I thought they looked like a highly detailed model. The image was from a plane. I appreciate the complements.

I'm tempted to play with some Photoshop tilt-shift effects to make them look more like models.

The links lead to rather detailed models- rail spotters could probably tell they are models but I'd have a more difficult time of it.

Another shot from the same repair yard as above. It appears they mostly replace wheels here.

Nice shot.

Sometimes, the rails look too narrow for what runs on them. Obviously, they aren't.
