Rob's Schöne Scheune: the Willy Adler Barn

Woodsy,

Here’s a lovely little HO Scale model kit I snagged off eBay recently, a German-produced Scheune (Barn), which came with lots of little farm business.

I added the animals and people, and tried to create an idyllic scene of yesteryear.

Gotta love Willy Adler, creator of the famous WIAD model empire.

From 1965!

    1. Thank you kindly. I had these HO scale animals laying around for decades, and I finally figured out how to use them! SFZ

    1. Much appreciated. I got hooked on German Railway Structures as a kid, and I never got over it!

  3. I agree, it's really charming Rob and your extras have brought the barn to life. Superb!

  4. When I was into model railroading as a teen, I quickly discovered that I liked the structures more than the trains themselves, and I've been building them ever since. The German manufacturers were the best!
