New Haven passenger Station looks very much like the real thing.  I assume that's West Rock or East Rock, not a mountain? West Rock Judge's Cave is where the regicide judges Whalley and Goffe hung out for a while, having fled to the colonies, hiding from royal informers,  after the Restoration of Charles II.  Perhaps an O gauge panther chasing them would fit in?    

Indeed - Roger used East Rock and also let me know that there will be a coaling tower that'll be added to layout - apparently the real coaling tower is still there - just East of East Rock Cool history you shared - being from New Mexico I wasn't aware of the West Rock Judge's Cave!

Last month, we had a visitor to our McGowan St. Studio here in Dallas, Tom Krens, who is working on a massive project in North Adams, MA: Extreme Model Railroad and Contemporary Architecture Museum and his comment as he saw the TW TrainWorx New Haven Station model was... "Ha, I just left from that station... looks just like it." Well... that was a most excellent testimonial to receive and bodes well for future collaboration

Have a Super Traintastic Day!
