Correction. He's been doing this for 6 years but then he is far from done.

Crazy still comes to mind.

Yeah he needs to run a g-scale rail spur down in there and use a string of hoppers to haul his dirt. Relying on dump trucks alone is insane! :D

Heck yes. Plus grading the roadbed and laying ballast give him more stuff to do with all those construction vehicles.

Also the trains should all be live steam, just to make it that much more insane.

My guess is digging out the basement is not the goal of this guy. In fact I would say that when he's done he'll use the same cool toys to fill it back in. He's doing what most of us do...playing.

Maybe this keeps him from anti-social behavior or maybe his wife's a nag. :O:


If he was in a hurry he'd get building a model of this!
