Time for a Easter egg hunt. Naturally we keep up and let the audience search for a couple of them. The task: Find a small part out of a huge picture... Enjoy!
Well, and on a very short notice, we just learned that there will be a broadcast this evening, Tuesday - 04/22/2004. Unfortunately, the NDR didn't inform us in time and therefore once again the hint: N3, Die Reportage, at 21.45 hrs
One side of the canyon is nearly finished as far as the plaster-works go. In the upper part, a small length of track swings freely over the gorge. It will be supported by a small wooden trestle later on.
Different rock strata...
make for an interesting...
picture of the deep gorge.
And this will be the trestle supporting the free swinging track.
It is, like many other bridges, a scratchbuilt one of our house brand 'Gaston'./p>
We still didn't have a chance to build in the staging yards. Problems with the turnout motors held us up and thus we don't make a lot of progress here.
Bryce Canyon, a picture that served us at another part of the layout. Thx @ Harry ;-)
Phew!! That could've been a lot worse! The ICE dug up the already standing train at medium speed.
Just a little bit more speed and could have picked up a lot of junk from the floor...
Now for searching Easter-eggs. originally, I intended to let you search for the guy in the traditional jacket (his name is Otto Hare) but then I noticed that the AOL - arena is visible in this picture. So I had to drop that (Attention: this is an "insider"! Forum readers know more ;-)).
The original TIF has monstrous 50.1 MB. The cut-out is somewhat smaller and heavily compressed as JPG. Nonetheless, this is definetly a picture for DSL- or cable modem owners. ISDN , or worse, modem owners should have a hang to masochism to download this 1.2 MB file ;-). Search task: How many jumpers were on the top platform of the open air bath at the time this picture was taken?
*** Warning: Extra large file !!! ***
