That's a lot going on in a small space but doesn't look squished.
Can't wait to see it at low tide in the evening.

Now that has a lot of atmosphere!
I'll make it. If I have to fly the five feet like a birdie.
I'll fly it. I'll make it.

Kim,
Nice looking scene.

If I don't get a chance, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Holiday season.
So, back to my project and a bit of track work
As you all might know, I am a big fan of mechanical railway signalling, so any excuse to keep the interest alive.
Here we have a mechanical ground throw that controls the yard throat leading into the dock area. Just use your finger..
The wagon is nice, hey, 1/35 scale commercially produced by Backmann, I think?
cheers.

I like your ground throw, Kim.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays back to you.

So, if I got this right, Bachmann built the fancy ground throw and you added the ore car .... -- ssuR

Kim, you have a knack for creating great character in your structures and small dioramas.  And you do it with the skill of a story book illustrator who leaves the reader wanting to delve even further into the scene to discover what else is happening just beyond what is visible.  I'm still waiting for you to complete your fun house/spook alley diorama.

Hi Stuart,
Thank you very much for your comment.
The way I see it is that I am 72 years old, and I have so much to get out in the next 12 years,
As for the carnival ride, I still have all the pieces, but we will see .
Cheers

Only 72? You're still a kid! -- Russ
