Dang! You got yourself a nice piece of real estate to work with. That stop sign is so majorly cool! Can’t wait to see what you will build here. If you ever want to sell that Lindsey car garage to finance your new layout, talk to me first.

No wonder I could never find it!

NM, probably wouldn’t fit at two foot wide, behind the hospital.

Nice train room, busss! Can't wait to see what layout you build there - I know it will be epic.

Also, that yellow stop sign is intriguing.

Ok, call me nuts, but I've seen those spots in pictures before. My mom calls them orbs, and, well, I think they might be the deceased, however there are so many, so I don't know.

The secret of what size the room is. 4x8? 8X10? 30X50? Or larger! What's funny, I had room to make my layout bigger. I could have done an 8X24 instead of 8x20... But I am sure glad I didn't!!
