I had the stockyard in my collection but decided I couldn’t use it. It sold on eBay
For $41. I couldn’t believe it...

Yet another Tyco piece I never knew existed, nor that it was the base for Ma's Place
and Speedy Andrew.

Your build is what inspired me to seek out one of these kits. It took a while to find though I didn't want to pay Ebay prices. Round 2 did a repop of the kit last year.

Ebay prices for the Bates Mansion are insane. You can get the motel kit from Busch for just as much money.

Plasticville Hospital. Its design allows for use in O through HO. That is the hospital staff
being chased out by a herd of wild animals that escaped the traveling circus. Inspired
by Jujamgi, one of my favorite films. The pterodactyl in foreground, carrying away
a person, is inspired by my fascination of paleontology and my other favorite film,
Jurassic Park. The contradictions of evolutionary theory fascinate me as much as
the beasts. According to strict evolutionary theory we evolved out of 3 billion year
old algae off the coast of Australia and went on to invent Tyco. Hmm. Quite a leap.
Mathematical laws of probability fail to support this idea.
