I have been very fortunate to have seen Joe's excellant layout. The attention to detail is fanatstic. And the time and effort he puts into each building and scene shows. He must have a loose leaf binder just on that coal mine scene with plans, photos, drawings, etc. He wants to know everything from the mining of coal to its being delivered to hoppers for shipment.
Joe..... thanks so much for allowing me to witness your progress and thanks so much for your hospitality.
