i have decided to start a new thread on my railroad. This portion will cover the large city area at the end of the layout. The cities are is located where the layout starts and ends. The layout is a double dogbone at one end. I'll post a pic of the layout design that appeared in 2019 Great Model Railroads issue. More to follow over the next several months or more.


The city are consists of many large structures constructed from kits from City Classics, DPM and others. Several are being re arranges to fit the location, many need window glazing, fire escapes ,etc to complete the structures. Many of these builds were build several years ago without consideration to a formal location on the layout. Now they may be modified to fit a specific location.


So follow along on the continuation of my layout journey.

OKAY, I  am trying to post photos, but they keep showing in upside down position. Any thoughts? I've tried to save them upside down, not working. Help.

Frank,
Try taking 2 photos to post with your phone or tablet, take one holding your device in a vertical position and then take one holding it in a horizontal position, post the 2 photos, see if they are both upside down or if one is correct, etc. If both are bad, it is a software issue , if it works one way of holding your device, then jump up and down ...
