New picture of my Berlin diorama

[jpachl]

 

German manufacturer Lemke has just brought out a collector's model of a Berlin S-Bahn car of the series 481. Since it's in TT scale (1:120), which is my favourite modelling scale, I couldn't resist to take a photo on my Berlin diorama. The diorama resembles the area around the S-Bahn station Warschauer Strasse, which is a wellknown railfan spot. With a closed and boarded up signal tower of the typical Berlin architecture, elevated district heating pipes from the old East German times, and Wildstyle graffiti, the layout provides the typical Berlin railway athmosphere of the early 2000s. The S-Bahn series 481 fits perfectly into this era.

Very nice diorama you have.

 

Thanks! Actually, this diorama is quite small, just 30 cm x 15 cm. I'm thinking of making a bigger one on a Berlin scene.

As a pre-study for another Berlin diorama project, I arranged this temporary photo scene. The train the same TT scale model as used in the other photo. The background appartment building on the left was made from a cardstock kit from Danish manufacturer Epoke Modeller. The brick structure on the right side was kitbashed using parts from Auhagen kits.

Thanks. Actually, the entire brick structure below the tracks is just an edited photo. It is mentioned in the description on the Flickr page. Attached is the original photo I used for this.
