Mike,
            Getting back to you on the McGillcuddy name.  George say's no not the Lucy show. It was just a name he liked at the time when he built the structure.  Hope this helps. Thanx Thom...

More in a few. I need a fresh Diet Pepsi.

When you find your other folder - see if you have any pictures of Mackenzie Milling at the base of the John Allen Trestle.  I photographed it last time, so there are pictures in the old thread, but I seem to have missed it this time.  Only caught the roof in a couple pictures. I counted it in my structure count.

John,
Thank you for posting the photo's of Gargle Oil Company.  I had looked at photo's in the past of Gargle however I never knew the amount of detail that George has put into this little scene.  The piping & storage tanks alone would take the average modeler months to do.
Does anyone know what George used for a starting point?  Is there some kits that he used?
Just like John Allen the name of the proprietor of Gargle is something to think about.  If I am not wrong Skootz is names after Georges Late cat & I wonder if McGillcuddy is named after Lucy from I Love Lucy TV show of many years ago.  I think McGillcuddy was Lucy's maden name.

Hi Mike
Thanks for following the thread - I see that Tom answered your questions. This is a big complex - George removed the top of Mount Allen to make room for it.  I really like Tom's  "George is casting" comment. I'm taking that as a good sign.

John,

I've looked through all my hard drive folders and discs. I have no idea what happened but they appear to be gone.

It is a scary thought but I may have accidentally deleted them, I've looked everywhere.

This is the best I can do.

Sorry Thom


I knew that but my spell checker is constantly getting me in trouble with spelling (I have to remember to override it) - like I need help with that.

I love the Gargle scene , maybe because it's so different to most of the rest of the layout.
