Fantasy corner has the work of
Chris Wallas written all over it. I don't know when it was
installed but in less than a week, it is due to be gone so I
thought I'd get some pictures. However, due to the lighting, it was
not possible to actually get good pics of every part of the
scene.
Futureopolis consists of three
loops, one at ground level and two elevated ones. The two upper
loops extend for a short distance behind the display.
Chris is well known for full
up whimsy, these are a couple of examples of cars stored in the
"roundhouse."
The combine in the back has a
UFO crashed into it.
I'm not sure what these are
but they are "futuristic."
These two cars as well are not
really describable.
The "Atlantis or Bust" train
was waiting for a run out on a pier.
This is the pier over a water
feature at the front of the display.
This is the train that runs at
ground level.
The larger ground level train
has a submarine themed locomotive.
The whole train has a nautical
theme, but this one appears to be made from a V-2 model.
The last two cars in the train
are also themed from underwater apparatus, but I'm not sure what the
actually are.
