Really nice tin roof.

Thanks Curt.  :) 8) There are quite a few corrugated tin roofs on the layout.

A panoramic view of "Merchants Row", which is a very busy place at this time of day. There are a few more corrugated roofs in this scene as well.

Great city scene.

Thanks Curt. That backdrop really accents the "city look" of this part of the layout.

Great pic. The sepia makes it seems like the air is hazy with coal smoke.

Thanks Curt.   :) 8) Sepia photo's really give steam locomotives and their surroundings an air of reality.

An old sepia photo of the ten holding tracks adjacent to the 130 foot turntable and 24 stall Roundhouse. The caboose holding track is seen in the background.

Thanks Curt. :) 8) The Roundhouse takes up alot of real estate on the layout, 50"x50" in N scale which equates to over eight feet by eight feet in HO scale.

Thanks Curt. :) 8) That backdrop building comes from Model Tech Studios. I used two kits to make this backdrop building in N scale. They also have the same kit in HO scale. I believe Tom used this backdrop building on his layout.

Have fun with it..... :) 8)
