Sam Gamgee arrives in Middle-earth by train - Lord of the Rings news - J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings
January 16, 2001 at 15:17:20Donald Nute has found a sculptor to create his Sam Gamgee for the Middle-earth Railroad we mentioned a few months ago.
Check out the new pictures posted here.
A small group of Tolkien enthusiasts have combined their interests in Tolkien and trains to create their own model railroads set in Middle-earth. Donald Nute's Web site is a splendid example of how the imagination is inspired by Tolkien.
The Sam Gamgee sculpture, so far as we know, is a custom job and is not available for sale. Chris Burdett, the artist, also created a dwarf for Nute's railroad.
