Steam Loco Test Run at the Rimkov Locomotive Works

Published on November 11, 2018

This award-winning model railway diorama is called “Rimkov Locomotive Works”. It was built by the model railroaders Rik Martens and Koen Vermeulen in 1/32 scale. “Rimkov” is a fantasy name, though the layout was inspired by the Rugby locomotive testing station in the United Kingdom. Inside the factory a steam loco is running on a locomotive testing plant, and after the steam loco has reached its maximum speed, all steam valves are opened.
