    Sure JR. I’ll get you a shot of my HO one it’s only 4x8 feet and still needs lots of work. I started building on this in May 2012 this was a very rough patch in my life. My Farther in Law had a massive Heart attack in front of me and passed away that was in Dec. 2009 I had to be strong for Belinda and Allee she was 9 years old at the time Belinda was devastated the pain and Mental stress would not leave me so I decided to fill one of my dreams build a HO layout. With God helping heal and this Layout I finally moved on.
    A hard time indeed Lee for all of you.

      Lee,
      As John said it would be good to see the whole layout. I do like the tarmac.

          Prost

          Yes Allen I need to get on the Highway Department the road is outside the city limits. I hope this Spring or Summer they will get to work on that Highway. Thanks for the complement.

            Thanks Paul. I will try to get one soon so you can see the overall look I’m glad you stopped by.

              Sure Lee, the north wall is intact as a fiddle yard & someday I may add more on the west wall.

                  Nice work here Lee. Interesting vehicles as well. Road Railers were not at all common on UK railways, probably due to the smaller loading gauge.

                      Thanks Tim. I have some old Airfix wagons I plan on making a European rail layout it will be small and non powered that’s good information there.
