Those models are stored in an XML archive and styled out in this dynamic website:

also I put up the preprint version of a book chapter:

> A very good VRML reference manual is online:
> http://www.cs.vu.nl/~eliens/documents/vrml/reference/BOOK.HTM
> The Concepts and Nodes pages explain each node, its expression and behavior

>
> Now some free models.
> In addition to loading VRMl and X3D files,
> Flux imports some common formats like .3ds .dxf and others
> There is also a shareware 3d-converter app for Windows on the DVD.
>
> When I did a google search on free 3d models there were tons.
> Some places that sell them also give a few away.
