That's a really neat set up you've got going. I like the ballast job a lot. 
I just have one question. Why are all the vehicles mounted on little pieces of paper?

Matt for some reason if I let them set on the layout as it is now they start to stick to the foam, so until I get the real roads in, either plaster ones or cardboard ones...I have them on paper card stock, this way they do not stick, does not happen to all, must have something to do with the wheel composition...plastic ones do not stick but the rubber ones do...do not understand why...but they should not after the roads are actually in...Garret the "fanged one"

| I had a similar sticking problem with the white paint I used on my vehicle display shelf. Only the rubber tires stuck, taking some paint with them.
