Chris Burden continues to amaze with his newest creation, “Metropolis II” Which features thousands of toy cars and some serious HO scale model railroad action, capturing the frenetic pace of a city come to life in miniature. Note that he wears earmuffs when it’s in operation!
Looks like he enjoys quality HO stuff..most of Con-Cor’s streamliners, bowser’s excellent PCC streetcar model and a KATO F-40PH are all seen.

This HO scale (1:87) model railroad car takes your iPod/iPhone for a ride around your layout. It cleverly has a mirror that allows for a realistic view forward using the rear-mounted camera. If the front camera is used, it provides a splendid “out the window” view. The car is offered for $27.95 from Minute Man Scale Models, the photos of the built car are by Matt Goodman.
