Actually this place was opened ten years ago. Previously it was a place all about trains (scale 1:87). It is the largest place about such trains in the world. They have different themes like USA, Switzerland, Alps, Scandinavia, etc. In Scandinavia they also show a harbor with huge ships that move. It's really impressive - and only 60-90 minute drive from my home :wink:

The airport part opened 4th May 2011. That means it was finished.
