Title: McCloskey's Market
Post by: MASIGMON on September 14, 2016, 07:12:42 PM
Karl,
I am think about scratch building McCloskey's Market.  I went to The RRlines and found Karl O build.  I have DPM ROBERTS DRY GOODS on order for the front store entrance.  After studing Karl O photo's of the build I think I am going to need an extra window part that goes by the front door.  The window I am talking about has a Sun Spot Sign on it on Karl O build.  Karl said that you advised him to use the Roberts kit to make this entrance.  Do I need to use another fixed window from another kit for that area. 

Any help will be great

***Also*** can someone tell me where the photo of is of this store that you built for George's layout>  Any photo's that you have from your build will be great 

Thanks,
Mike Sigmon

Karl,  I ordered two kits @ a discount price thinking I might have to have an extra window.  I will keep everyone informed if that is the case.  Now to find the Sun Spot Sign.

Thanks,

Mike,
I believe the first sign is almost like the one Karl O used. The second one is cool too.

Here's the signs you requested. Couldn't find your Genco build so I posted them here.
