The Model Power Farm House. Bought years ago by my ex-wife for the farm area she wanted on the layout. As planned back then, I have 8 square feet of space saved for the farm section of my table. The only MP building I have for use and it's the only unbuilt kit I have left...

A Atlas roundhouse I found at a flea market. It is missing the entrance door parts.

Love those NdeM tankers. Sharp!

The tankers belong to Mario Almieda, a club member
who commutes from Ciudad Juarez. The word is that
while on a decline in the US, the burgeoning middle
class in Mexico has created a strong demand for
Mexican models. Twenty years ago, very little was
to be found in either decal or RTR, now there is
quite a bit.

It is still rather hard to come by, at least here in LA. The engines are more common but rolling stock is almost an impossible find.. I do have a few hoppers a box car and a caboose.

Yes, well, being on the Border, if you have a strong
enough interest, look up Hal's Hobby Warehouse
in El Paso. He's not cheap, but they do get custom
runs from Athearn for Mexican roads in all manner
of equipment and it sells out every time.

Love the Atlas roundhouse, Frank. Looks a lot more useful than their deck turntable.
