Exceptionally cool: World's largest model train layout
Look at all the pictures. I was blown away by #11. I *think* it's Oberammergau, but check out the porta-potties!

1. Coooooooooool!
I love these things, and that one is fantastic. My favorites are the ones with working carnivals on the layouts.

3. There are so many, there is a huge one in San Diego in the
big park in the middle of town.
Some are private and some are public, but even the private ones usually invite people in to look at it.
