Who am I?



I was born in 1957 and lives in Tumba, south of Stockholm / Sweden. Since 1986 i'm employeed as a
modelmaker at Stockholm City Planning Administration, where I'm building the models for the town
planning design.

Background

I've always been intrested in models, and as a seven-years old kid I took my first steps with ships,
tractors, buses etc. in simple materials. Paper and karton was (and is) my favourite material, depending
it's smoothness and that you fast can see results.

In the 80's the transparent plastic foil entered in my modelling, and even today it's my main material
in the bodies of trains, buses etc.

My collection

Since 1977 I've mostly build trains in N-scale (1:160).

My big hobbyproject is to get a complete collection of displaymodels of all locomotives, EMU´s and DMU´s
from Western Europe (look at "Gallery")!

The collection has (2009) reached a number of over 1700 different models, of which approx. 400
(of my swedish models) is permanent displayed at the Swedish Railway Museum, Gävle.

Further 130 norwegian models are displayed in the same way at the Norwegian Railway Museum, Hamar.

In 2008 I´ve also inaugurate a display case at the Stockholm Tramway Museum, with trams/
commutertrains/ buses etc. from the Stockholm area (70 models).


In autumn 2009, 500 of my european models was shown at Museum of architecture in Stockholm in a
temporary exhibition, "BanaVäg".



The model railway

Together with my brother Frank, we build a snow-covered model railway in the N-scale in year 1979.
The pattern was the Alvesta-Emmaboda-Karlskrona line in Småland (in the southern of Sweden) in the
seventies, at winter time!
The model railway is now deposed and exhibited at Nässjö Raiway Museum!

Orders

During the years, I´ve done many train- and busmodels to orderers, in N-scale as well as Z (1:220) and
H0 (1:87).
One of the more spectacular comission was the new double-deck EMU of SJ (class X40) in N-scale, to the
disco-group BWO. Here the model goes round and round in their video!


I gladly recieve orders of trainmodels in Z /N /H0, as far as my time admit!
If you want a model with function, you as customer must purchase the underframe/driving chassies (and if
necessary: pantographs)!


Others about th homepage

At the "Gallery", I´ll serve pictures from a selection of my model collection, country by country.
At regular intervals I´ll change pictures, and also put in some new (new models will be added to
the collection all the time!).

- Under Building tip I present some step-by-step building instructions, mostly in Swedish.

- Under Latest you will find what´s going on at my workbench - and where and when you can meet me next!
