A small depot I saved from the dumpster a few weeks ago.

Honest Sam's on the Smeltertown trolley layout. One of my favorite buildings.
Nice job Walt, nice save Gremlin.

I completed a model of a Switching tower. Kit was made by Railway Design Associates. It is a model of a BR&P tower which looks a lot like a DL&W one.

That's just plain neat!
The art deco modern look really fits into a postwar trolley layout. That with the modeled interior really makes for a showpiece on your layout.

My BOTW is my recently finished Model power station!
Custom lighting, paint job, and signs/posters!



I describe how I built it here:

If I can't fix it, I can fix it so it can't be fixed.

Eric, Charles, these buildings rock! Dig the placement of the folks at the counter; always dig seeing the trolley. And the placement of that alcove light in the Silverado station really brings that to life. Enjoyed seeing your photos.

I'm glad that's the vibe you're getting. I may have to add lighting to this one.

Barry, thanks! It's not visible in the picture, but there's also a counter on the inside just to the right of the two standing figures. Hopefully I have enough people to make a little line in there too!

Some really cool stuff this week guys. Love the diner. Now for something a little different. This was suppose to be a Christmas item, but I'm using it year round in my wall hugging town of Clifton.

Gary, if that were a real church, I'd want to go there at least once to see the ornate inside.
