Rod Stewart have told to the magazine, Railway Model, that he has been working on its high-rise buildings, and landscapes, as well as other parts of the model railway, when he has been on tour. He prayed always for an extra large hotel room, so he could build on modeljernbanen, when he felt like it.
‘We told in advance the hotels, what I had going in. And they were very cooperative. They removed the beds in the hotel room, so there was more space to build on modeljernbanen,’ says Rod Stewart.
