Forestry in HO scale

A forestry scene modeled in HO scale within "The Great Train Story." Lumberjacks cut down a tree, which stands up and falls endlessly under automatic control, while trees and lumber are loaded onto rail cars.

 

"The Great Train Story" is part of the Transportation Gallery at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. The exhibit includes an HO-scale model of downtown Chicago, and more than 1400 feet of track that illustrates the rail journey from Chicago to Seattle, Washington.
