This is the last of my layout pics before i start a thread of pictures of the physical part of my layout without the buildings where i can ask you guys for some help and advice about where i went wrong in the planning and building of this 7 and half by 7 and half dusting paper weight lol I wish now I hadn't fell asleep during 7th grade shop class so many years ago when the guy was teaching electrical dc current and soldering but this guy didn't have all his fingers so that sorta strained his crediability. the sears store is the 2nd building i ever built out of scrap dpm parts really its too big a foot print so I am gonna tear it apart and use of the exsisting stuff only make it smallerBuilt this out of card stock and plastruct and plasticville parts for my mill when money was tight and time on my hands suprised nobody noticed this old tyco hojos kit mixed with a couple motel kits tied together I drive a bus for greyhound so hence the details for the bus staion built but when i driving in the south it seems a lotta these old hojos as motels are still around .Up here in the north not so much. Last but least is my kenner plastic bridge yea I know it looks tacky but hey i had about three boxes of this stuff and when I was a kid(I just turned 60) all i got was lincoln logs so tyco trains is makin up for the trains i never had lol
