This thing is amazing! I want one! I would get the hat and make believe I was in Hooterville.

That's super cool! I saw this story the other day but I didn't read it however I did see that his wife had told people that he built it all himself.

He even has the lights for night and day, sunrise, sunset.

It looks very elaborate. He certainly has invested a great deal of time & money. I saw his face, it must bring him a great deal of happiness.

I didn't know what I was looking at till you two started talking about model trains. That's fucking amazing, the level of detail looks like something out of an expensive movie set.

Here's the story  -

For the last 23 years, Rod Stewart has been working on a massive model railroad. The successful singer has been featured in both Railway Modeller (published in his native UK) and Model Railroader (published in the US) over the years, showing off his ever-growing model of a US city inspired by Manhattan. And in the latest issue of Railway Modeller, he’s unveiled the finished product. It features many, many buildings, bridges, houses, and a very detailed landscape with tracks and trains snaking throughout.

“A lot of people laugh at it being a silly hobby, but it’s a wonderful hobby,” Stewart said when he called into a BBC Radio 2 show to talk about his model. “I would say 90% of it I built myself. The only thing I wasn’t very good at and still am not is the electricals, so I had someone else do that.”

Per Railway Modeller, Stewart would work on some of the construction while on tour, requesting an extra room in his hotels to do so. “When I take on something creative like this, I have to give it 110%,” he told the magazine. “For me it’s addictive. I started, so I just had to finish. I’m lucky I had the room. If I’d have realised at the start it would have taken so long, I’d have probably said, ‘No! No! Nah!'”

The railroad is housed in his Beverly Hills mansion, taking up its entire third floor. It measures 23 feet wide by 124 feet long.

That is aweseome!

Not what I immediately think of when i hear hooterville.

Rod stewart always gave me the creeps when I was a kid. I guess it was a combination of the tight jeans, spiked hair and mole on his face.

I don't find him attractive at all and don't care much for his music either, but he was always with beautiful women. He's such a gross little shit, I'd rather fuck clang.

Well remind me not to give your fat ass a compliment again.

Sorry. Thanks for the compliment. It was so unexpected, it broke my brain. I rarely receive compliments I never know what to say except Thank you, but that doesn't seem adequate so then I get all weird, quiet, and uncomfortable.

Wear a rubber.

It's weird how every thread eventually becomes all about Clang.
