That price is astonishing. My modeling knowledge is limited to plastic aircraft kits, so I have no idea what I'm looking at here. I'm not sure what it would take to pay that kind of money for a model aircraft, it would have to be the size of a coffee table and made by PLASMO or an equivalently (freakishly good) builder. I assume that KOHS engine is handmade of brass sheeting (the detail and workmanship do look exquisite)? How much of the cost is from its internal componentry (I assume it has a high-quality electric motor?)? Or is this just what it costs to play at the top of the model train game?
