Roy, That was a very interesting photo of that room full of handcrafted wooden trains, etc. I never knew such a thing existed. Thanks!

This Spanish company sells model kits composed of laser-cut wood and white metal castings. I see they've introduced kits of the transcontinental golden spike engines, but they're out of stock.

There are wooden kits and 3-D puzzles of Notre Dame available.

I wonder how that survives when it rains without a cover. ?

Kind of doubt that it's live....after however many years it took to get grown over like that...

Another, more fanciful, laser-cut wood model. This time, from a Ukranian company:
