7 Week: 11 December, 2000 ÷ 17 December, 2000

Here we go! On Tuesday, 12.12.2000, our projects starts at full blast! Today, Gerhard Dauscher arrived with thick roll of plans. What had been seen a letter-sized sheet of paper before, is now plotted 1:1 on about 100 sqm of paper. Let's get cracking!

1. Gerhard Dauscher in 75 cms height! The plans are stapled to the benchwork. Now the first building phase ist at least visible one-dimensional.

2. 5 guys (one of them a girl) needed a whole day to staple all plans for the 1. building phase. On this picture, only 7% of the total layout area are visible!

3. Unfortunately not visible in this picture : From the plans, one can learn just how great the 3-dimensional scenery will look like. In this spot, a "SMALL" station with 8 tracks will be created (considering the size of our project, 8 tracks is not very much!) in rolling hills. A long ICE - track will cross it on a high concrete bridge. In the background, we will have high mountains with a summit-station. A river provides a lot of space for a boat pier, and much more...

4. A lot of brightness is spent by the provisional lighting fixtures. In the background, Gehard Dauscher admires his work!

5. A view into the large workshop which receives new tools day after day!

6. A small storage for merchandising, snacks, etc. is set up in the entrance area.

7. This new wall will later separate the entrance hall from the lavatories.
