They see a train running around the track and often don't really have an appreciation for how much time, work and skill has gone into the model railway layout. The building and crafting of the landscape and structures of a model railway layout can take many hours of careful work and a huge amount of patience.

There are some shortcuts like buying a kit for a building and then weathering it. But, the expert model railroaders will often scratchbuild the same building. This means they build it from scratch, from absolutely nothing. This gives a unique model train layout look.
