    Looking Good
    I like the fencing. Where did you get it from? Was it a kit or did you make it yourself?

    It's a kit from Miller Engineering.

    John nice job, I like the fence as well, I think it looks very real. The warehouse looks good as well, large enough to need rail service and could fit anytime from 1970's to the present.

    I have been doing some work, thanks for asking. I am working on my south yard extension. I have one specific area I am working on with an old roundhouse where the turntable has ben removed. It is loosly based on the NJII round house off olive street in South Bend that is still barely standing. You can get a neat view with google maps. I have an initial section finished, I'll post some pictures in the next few weeks just really trying to get it right.

    I don't think he realized what a tight squeeze it was going to be. I'll bet he had to sell it for scrap metal :eek:)

    It's for the America's funniest video. It's going to look funny when he wraps that trailer around the tree.
