Northlandz

Another destination to make it to. This one is US based, however, so the chances of me making it are better.

A friend passed an article on Matthew Albanese shooting a miniature with the new Sony QX100 lens-style camera - a nice, cool bit of tech!   That was cool in and of itself, but the subject matter was also right up my model railroad alley!

NORTHLANDZ is a giant model railroad in New Jersey. While I'm not really in the market to travel to NJ any time soon, family on the East Coast makes it something that might happen. It says it's a 3 hour drive from Maryland, so maybe I could work something out with a train.

At any rate, Northlandz looks like it's a place to venture to for sure. While they might need a new website :::grin:::, the railroad looks like it would be a lot of fun to visit and photograph.

Take a gander.

    1. Right?! LOL! That's one way to do it.
      I think this was a project that just grew and grew and grew and, next thing you know, you have this giant layout powered by the likes of these things. :)

      I need to get out there to see it.
