Andy,

Wonderful job on the Farmer's Co-op! It looks perfect in that spot. Great looking layout.

Andy...

Great photos.  Looking up at stuff in HO is not a regular occurrence.  It's a fun perspective.

Did you ever notice how many towns are named after their water towers ! ?

Thanks to all for looking and commenting. Might be a little while before the next post I have some ballasting to do. I also broke down and bought a kit, (you guy's are a bad influence on me). I was going to  scratch build the next scene but found a kit that matches almost perfectly so I went with it..

Working on a few more road sections and crossings. Also getting some ballasting done. The next scene will be in the bottom right of the picture. It will be a small gas station and diesel truck repair shop. Only one of these buildings is still standing today and it is a roofing outfit now. I  know Bob Parrish has a soft spot for gas stations so he might like this. I will be starting to build the scene shortly.

Andy .....

Yes I am a lay down for gas stations. It's warming up enough here in downtown Idaho for me to fire up the 41 pick up.  The model A will be the end of March.  But... No cool old gas stations to take them to.

I'll be watching.   

Thanx
Bob

I am also looking forward to seeing your gas station , you can never have too many gas stations on your layout  ;D
