Does anyone know of a model railroad anywhere that contains an operating model railroad that is small enough to be a model in the scale of the main layout. That is, for example, there's a model railroad, and somewhere on it is a model of a garden with a much smaller model railroad in it that actually runs. My son and I were thinking about this the other day. We thought maybe someone would have built a layout in one of the large scales with an N-scale "model garden" layout inside it, or something like that.
Its been talked about in the Garden Railroad (G scale) forums over the years..
An N-scale or Z-scale loop inside of a G-scale garden railroad would represent a "ride-on" size train, like an amusement park train.
it's been done a few times..
There isnt anything small enough to depict G-scale inside a G-scale garden railroad.
even T-scale is about 2x too big..
