It's always been so challenging to keep the riff-raff out of this forum and now this ...


LOL  ;D  LOL  ;D


It's odd how I have been to the F&SM several times and made many photos of the layout but I never paid attention to what the structures are called. The only structure I know by name us the Y. B. Fardy (Makers of Gastorex) building Maybe that says more about me than the layout  :)


I'm looking forward to this one. Thanks for sharing.

Jaime,

Ain't it the truth! George has some very clever names on many of his structures. Not as funny as Howard Zane does, but still clever. One Howard has I can share here is a Doctor's Office of Proctology. Dr. name is I. C. Pyles.

Happy to have you in the bleachers.

Looks like I'll be looking in on another Langford build.....any truth to the rumor about the naming of the cafe?  ;)

Greg,

Hey, I appreciate you following along. Not sure about the truth but I am claiming this as my, I mean,  Grumpy's Cafe!

The signs are very clear and colorful.


There is a sign for the Riffraff Cafe if you want to use it. I'm sticking with Grumpy!

Tommy,

Thanks for following along. FYI, the signs are not scanned to HO scale. If you want me to send a set, send me a PM with your address. I always take the kit signs to a local printer and have them scaled to HO. They do it better than I can.

The ones shown above were just taken with the camera, cropped and posted.
