...and the privately owned railway company GFB (Grimstad Frolands Banen) is operating a small strech of track from the norwegian coastal town of Grimstad up to Rise, some 20 kilometers into the country. There it meets the NSB (Norwegian state railways) line from Arendal. NSB still runs passenger trains on the Grimstad Line, but all the freight is now handeled by the GFB. In real life, the Grimstad Line was closed down in 1961, but in my imagination, and in my layout room, it survived and we're now in 1965.
Please join me in my quest to replicate this sleepy little railroad. Any comments on my work are most welcome!
Three more days now, and I'm leaving for Germany with my local model railroad club; Amjk where we are going to show some of our modules. This'll be Grimstad's first outing with scenery.
Hi Yan, and thanks for your comments! I'm using HEKI catalogue number 1630 for these trees - right out of the box. They are just the normal "seeweed" plant used in more and more tree kits nowadays, but only slightly painted and with no additional topping :)

I really do like your trees. Very life like and fine detail. Do you make them or are they purchased ready made?
Good luck for the outing
