In this episode host Chris Chianelli visits Greenfield Village, part of the massive American History museum known as
The Henry Ford. The streets here are reminiscent of Americana--preserved as a capsule in time from the turn of the 18th century, right up to the Golden Age of the railroads--and the '50s and beyond. Street lamps, park benches, buildings and signage all work together to create realistic street scenes on a model railroad layout.
Then there's a visit to a model railroader's layout in New York. Lou Sassi knows a thing or two about street scenes. When it comes to this layout, it's all in the details for Lou. That's what he sees in his viewfinder. Lou is an accomplished freelance photographer, specializing in model railroad images. It's no wonder he pays attention to the small details.
Back in the studio Chris is joined by guest John Lowrance, a master model railroader, who demonstrates some tips and techniques on how to create realistic street scenes on a model train layout.
