    It is very local to me and still open. Some buildings have lights inside, and they can run the trains as if at dusk by dimming the main overhead lighting. Modellers are always required, but they have exacting standards, and test you with a small outhouse or privy first!

    That is an absolutely astonishing model. I can't believe someone invested so much time into making this. This has GOT TO BE more of a labor of love than just a job. The meticulous craftsmanship down to every last little thing is a work of art, not to mention the skill and imagination it took. BRAVO or BRAVA as the case may be. WOW!!!😁💜

    What a touching presentation. Thank you for sharing it. Perhaps one day I'll visit the museum as I've just read that it is still doing away quite dandy. What a bunch of talented and dedicated souls. Brilliant.

    Every time the pencil emerged to menace the model I momentarily felt like I was watching a 1950's horror film; 'Attack of the Gigantic Pencils'!

    I'm waiting for Postman Pat in his van to gently bimble on through the scene.
    Sadly, here we have another clickbait title used - "astonishing", when that word is not actually used in the footage.
    The word used is Ambitious.
    There really is nothing astonishing about it.
    It would be astonishing if a tiny volcano erupted in the model village and tiny people ran out of the buildings as they all caught fire.
    That would indeed be astonishing.
    No model village anywhere, ever, has been astonishing.

      Then you knew it was clickbait before clicking, thus for you at least, it wasn't clickbait.

      I think you have forgotten that 'astonishing' is not an objective fact, but a subjective opinion. Your opinion is not representative of all people's opinion, as some people may find this model village astonishing. The work, time, creative use of materials, enormity of the project and dedication to create detailed realism, to some people, is indeed astonishing. Therefore the title is not clickbait.
