Paul this is turning out really fantastic! The trees and scenery are really making this whole thing pop even more than the buildings, tracks etc.

and as Oliver Twist once said… “Please sir, I want some more”
KEEP THE GREAT WORK COMING

Thanks gents. Next is M.O.W. section.

[minitnkr]

This is proving more difficult than foreseen, so I've been adding trees & undergrowth here & there in between gazing at the M.O.W. section, trying to visualize what I had planned when I laid it out back in the eighties. I will go back to military if I get stuck, just to clear my thinking & clean up the cave, as it is really cluttered w/scenery materials right now. PaulE
