I guess I get to start this week. First time! Here's the last new home in Plasticville Estates and guess what? It's not Plasticville. I see Life-like sold this as a the Kramer House as a kit and also fully assembled. i found it at a flea market for $5. Fixed it up and here it is.

The car is a Lincoln and the wagon is a wheel barrel. I like the wagon idea. Wonder where I can find one.

The Tyco Stock Yard kit. No room for this kit and would trade for a complete Tyco Truck Terminal...

Also this 3 story House kit for trade for the Tyco Truck Terminal...

Gary, I really like your theme and the modeled neighborhood, but at the risk of sounding like microbusss, I would like to ask a question. Are there beavers living in plasticville? Regards, john

In this case, that's not beaver damage. It's just such an upscale neighborhood that they have stemware trees. Us high society people knows about them things.

OK, It took me a minute to figure out what the heck you guys were talking about with the beavers. PV Estates only exists as a series of floor tiles. If I ever get the space I will permanently assembled them. For that reason the trees are mounted to be removable. The ones in that picture just not in the base far enough. That said, I like your beaver explanation better.

Don, You are right, the only thing J.R. Ewing and I have in common is our first 2 initials. I'm just a low rent Texan, and know very little about the upper classes.
Gary, All kidding aside, I like your neighborhood. You have done a great job.
Regards, John

Now that's a neighborhood I would like to get my hands on. LHS had the middle one built up but I think $25 is a little high for the condition. Nice work Toptrain. That Atlas station is a classic. It belongs on the Model Railroading Registry of Historic Buildings
