JP and Bob thanks for the kind words on my lift out support, but I saw it here first on the forum so I just copied it to fit my needs! a little wood work and some welding and it seems to work.

Well guys I got up early before my to do list and did some playing around with building placement and roads. I am trying to use the old roads from the now defunked town so they might look a little weathered when I am done. Mind you nothing is set in stone, just playing!

Just like all the other times I am open to suggestions!

Mike - everything looks good, except I'm not a fan of putting the two Menard's flats up against the built-up curve. The tops partially block the view; I'm not sure a flat looks good up against a rounded surface; and, in terms of "realism", I think a flat looks better up against a flat wall at the layout surface where you can at least envision that the building extends further back.

Just my $0.02 -
