Reply to "Have You Incorporated B-17's, B-29's, or, Mustang Fighter Planes With Your Menards' "Nose Art" Boxcars On Your Layout? ...Thanks For Pix!"

TEXASTRAIN and M MITCHELL MARMEL,

Thanks for the pix! Those are creative and well done flats with loads. I'm going to have to get busy. What types of models are you and the other Forum Members finding and using for this purpose. I know that Bob used a very cool Marklin model.

I've been searching for die cast WW II planes to use, and need to do some more searches. Wouldn't it be great if Menards could create some "Plug & Play models, and WW II Air Force Buildings? (Menards has done at least one, which I plan to purchase.) Obviously, such an endeavor would have to properly fit Menards' business model. Based on my above post, I should also be looking for a small "planetarium like" building for the model of an air base on the layout. I'll likely have to do some painting and detailing, but, that should be fun.
