The Gods And Their Machines (2012)
“He was in the converted dining room at the back of the house, working on his model railway, which took up most of the large room and a sizeable chunk of the house’s electricity bill. Chamus loved that train set and the landscapes that his grandfather created to run the trains through. All the bridges, grassy hills, and brick and stone buildings were made from scratch, using papier mâché, wood and other bits and pieces. Model animals, cotton-wool bushes and pipe-cleaner trees added a touch of na...ture to the environment. And, of course, there was an aerodrome, complete with model aeroplanes. His grandfather put the trains together himself, making bodies to fit over the working parts. The planes were perfectly scaled, hand-built models, made to help in the design of aircraft that his workshops would build.
