Overall size: W 580mm x D 380mm x H approx. 240mm
Gauge (width between tracks): 9mm

Transparent acrylic case (3mm thick)

Items not included:

Power pack (TOMIX recommended)

Remarks:
Running is difficult.
There is a step at the rail joint near the bridge and in the middle of the curve, and it is easy to derail.
Because the tunnel opening height is only about 32mm, the cars cannot run with the pantographs in the upright position. Diesel railcars and locomotives can run.

2008.2023 Running Scene of "Small Layout of Valley Railroad, Revised" (Video Production:\r\nEdoTyouninZ)
In 2023, after a lapse of 15 years, I renewed my railroad diorama, which I created in 2008 as my first N gauge layout (scale 1:150) in my mid-40s. The diorama was designed in the image of a rustic inn town in the mountains. The renewal mainly included LED lighting and base modifications, while maintaining the original atmosphere as much as possible.
Before I created this work in 2008, I had been into "machiya architecture" (wooden structures that served as stores and residences built before the early Showa period) in the Kanto area and its cityscape, and I had an urge to express the charm of these structures in some form in my own way. Also, I happened to see an example of N gauge diorama production on an NHK TV program at that time, and I was strongly motivated to create it.
At that time, I was not particular about the period setting of this work because I only wanted to express the charm of the townscape of "machiya architecture" in the form of a model, but this work became the inspiration for my later concept of "Japanese townscapes and scenery around the early 20th century. All of the buildings (structures) were originally designed and built by myself, but only the station building was built by myself based on a ready-made kit (made by Greenmax, I think).
(Japanese roof tiles, fences, cars, dolls, etc. are made of plastic commercial materials)
