Never done a quote before- should be interesting.
Some fotos of Hobo Tim's trailer trains. Very well done- a devil to get on the tracks though.

Baltimore Row Homes



Admittantly- These are not pretty buildings-- but much of what we model near the tracks is not pretty. This is just a suggestion for a future release in City Builders. Each building butts up against it's neighbor so - say- a series of four homes would only require a front, back, and two sides. Depending how they are painted- each a different color- or two the same- can add variety.. also the top cornice's can be different. Or these can be made into flats- and placed against a backboard.

Yup Yup Matt! The Painted Ladies of San Fransisco or the Brownstones of Boston-- Lots of options for surrounding buildings from the merchantile blocks.

Matt- Great Picture!! :woohoo:
These haven't found a home yet on the modules-- But I think I might use a slightly less steep hill. :)

Fred,
There seems to be a large Gorilla climbing the flagpole of Independence Hall.
Where are the airplanes?

This is an OLD picture--I had a very nice Federal Eagle silver charm that I put on top of the Dome. Also the Liberty Bell was not located outside the belfry. Since then I have repainted the white to a very light tan- correct colors- and added a silver clock on the left wall by the Chimney. There is some licence here. Not to fear- no gorrila or airplanes....
Actually I was trying to post another Xmas picture but it failed to load properly- this was a back up
