It was unique in that sizing was very compact, the winter theme as mentioned, and the fellow had made the impression of the exit of a large station "hall" as the centerpiece, think like Munich, Leipzig or the other grand European station canopies. (of course massively scaled down!) It was either a forum/internet darling, or in the Marklin magazine. I am desperately trying to find it as the layout contained several themes I can carry over to a project I am working on. Does this ring a bell with anyone? I know this is a bit of a stretch without more information to go from, but it was a very unique layout. Any help is appreciated!

I am keen to produce something similar as a holiday layout, where tinplate nostalgia meets somewhat advanced winter scenery. Perhaps the intersection of a Wes Anderson movie and a vintage Marklin catalogue :) Where the tree will go is an interesting question, but that is a step two... This is likely to become a 3 month modelling challenge, so wish me luck! It is all dependent on a few boxes of near-abandoned M track I am picking up tomorrow, hopefully that is all in good enough order to clean and work with. I'll let you guys know if anything becomes of it, and thanks again!
