As usual, great photos. I really appreciate the work that goes into this thread, and the sharing of these photos!
     What does George use to make his streets? Is it plaster? Does he have any special technique when he spreads out the material?

Thanks!

Has anyone else noticed how many exquisite vehicles George has in his scenes?  They add so much to his incredible structures and scenery.

Jerry,

When I visited the F&SM in March of 2016 I made a mental count of the vehicles as I took several hundred pictures.

I gave up at 250+ vehicles.

At this point we have gone over the 500 structure count (with many more to go), and I would guess there are three vehicles for every structure.  Another fun fact would be how many figures are on the layout?
