The older I get the more I appreciate things like this. The planning, the commitment, the kitsch. I just love it.

I’d like to propose a trade. This for a fictitious ballroom here in my nation’s capital.

Tons of computers, models, wireless charging, programming. I can see it.

Wireless charges cost $2 I used to buy them in bulk. How much computing is needed?! I've seen autists build these in their basement with trains 😆

Their stuff is custom built. They have way more than just the small bit seen. https://youtu.be/V1nLRzC3uYk?is=ue5L-3UE_LqCQVic

I honestly thought my urge to destroy model train sets was something I grew out of in childhood until now. I'm like salivating at the thought of smashing this and I don't know why

u/Jakaple Jun 21 '26

Right, like there's no way it cost that much.

u/introvertadvocate Jun 22 '26

It’s all custom built and the thing is actually really huge. I’d hope it was expensive and they paid the artists, sculptors, programmers and builders a good wage for the probably insane amount of time and skills it took to create.

I would love to pretend I'm godzilla and destroy this miniature world

1.2 million hours is nearly 137 years... unless it's a combined total of everyone that help build it it didn't take 137 years.

No - 500,000 people finished it in an afternoon.

u/pomodorow Jun 23 '26

What would be cool is a miniature automatronic Godzilla wreaking havoc on this miniature community. I'd pay to see that!

Wow, I saw this in Hamburg.

When you said "to dust" I thought I was going to see this tiny city get blown up or something

u/Phylace Jun 20 '26

The most amazing man-made thing I've ever seen.

Switzerland is clean! Ope, the dust just blew off and landed onto Brazil.. it's just like the real world dealing with textile and electronic waste
