We are always thrilled when our Shopowners and and their buyers collaborate. \u00a0Stonysmith recently shared this incredible project <\/a>\u00a0by David Wolf in our forums. \u00a0So, how did this train become so incredible exactly? David inserted a controllable motor into a Z Scale Model Railroad Train engine to let the snowplow spin in a realistic way.<\/p>\n

Stony notes “Here is some incredible modeling. This is the kind of thing where I declare that I am just making the canvas, and it takes a real artist to turn it into artwork.”<\/p>\n
