Reply to "20x8 Train Layout Build - 24 Feb 21 Update: New Switch Tower, and things are looking Up!"

It's been a while since I've updated this thread, so I'll start with some pictures of the "downtown" area with the roads in place and the buildings lighted:

Eventually, the Beatles will be crossing the road below.   I have some figures I need to repaint first...

More recently, I've been working to finish up the super-detailing of a 5-story MTH building with the assistance of my 8 yo.   Here's how it came out...

As you can see, we mortared the brick, added LED lighting and curtains inside, added some outside lights, and fully detailed the first floor interior - which is home to P. Sherman, D.D.S and Sunnyside Daycare:

Window AC units on the back:

Made a more detailed roof on the top, plus added smokestacks and an exterior light.   This upward angled strip of LEDs will light a future billboard (content on billboard TBD):

Here is the building in place on the layout:
