@Dave NYC Hudson PRR K4 posted:@Darrell Martin, yes, the Twin Towers are a bit shorter than what they are supposed to be. The NJ HiRailers have somewhere on here the work that it took to build them, I don't remember if it was linked here earlier in the topic or not. I'll have to have a look about when I get home so you will be able to get the full story from Ben as he had posted about it.
They work that they put into doing the tribute to the Towers is just as awe inspiring as seeing them in person. I am really glad I was told a out the 50th Anniversary party for OGR, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten all the shots I took.
Well, I tried locating the topic I was talking about(Ben did post earlier here), but not what I was talking about. Ben had posted somewhere on the forum about the construction to the Twin Towers, and I know I saw that topic. Unfortunately it was not anywhere in my inbox under what I searched for. I did find the "Urban Renewal" topic that was posted by Ben, but that was the addition of the new Empire State Building to the layout. They had a smaller version which was by where they built the Towers, but that wasn't the topic on them.
As we all know, trying to search a topic sometimes leads us to dead ends because of how common the word or words are in the search. World Trade Center brought up a ton of trade topics for people trading items, and Twin Towers brought up a bunch of twin hopper topics to really stretch my mind to the limit. I think I went through about 25-30 pages collectively on them. The only thing I can think of is messaging Ben or asking him to lead us to that topic. Maybe that will wait until Tuesday.
