Hi vince:

To answer you question about the trees. They are bu Heki. Also the trackside building has been completely changed. Kit walls are cardstock with shingles. Made new clapboard walls and painted them, with earth instead of white.

Karl, Your version of Baxter's came out great and I'll use it as a reference for mine as I build it. I also started mine in July... July of 2014...

Special K,
I agree with Danny, your kit came out awesome. It looks like a complicated build indeed. I guess George knows a thing or two as a supreme designer eagh!. I wonder what challenges him as a structure builder? Thanx Thom...

Hi Guys:

Found this photo of the real lumber yard Baxter's is based on in my Dad's old photos. He was into local history. It is in Sellersville, Pa. about 7 miles from where I live and I had seen it many time driving up rout 309. Enjoy the pic. It was the A. S Cressman Lumber Yard. The bridge you see on the left is Route 309 going through Sellersville.

Ditto that. Love seeing the protos our kits were based on. 👍🏻

Omigosh - Route 309. I grew up in Ambler, PA (age 0 to fourth grade). You just made some very old neurons fire.
