Also outstanding. Great use of color and light. Also, your figures make you scenes come alive, in the heavenly little world aglow that you've created.

Signal Maintenance works discuss today's projects.

Nice scene! Always afraid those plastic cars would just crack in half one day, all you need is the fiberglass shred hazmat crew

Deep looks like a tough area to play!

close-ups around the village...

Thank you, BOBBYD.  The Danbury Mint cars are made of resin. I bought this one for only $2.95 cause of a crack line on the roof. Well when popping it off it's stand, it popped from my hand and onto the tile floor.  Just trying to make lemonade, from a lemon situation.  Azgary 

A couple of shots of a couple of my modules from the 2016 Beltsville Day Festival.

Here are my close ups.

Very nice sequence. I can see this setting resulting in a future "highlight" post on the OGR Forum!!

It was deep. Most exciting play in baseball used to happen out there: the inside the park homerun. Mantle would hit 450 foot blasts out there that would rattle around the monuments in the field of play while he raced around the bases with his blazing speed.

I bet that was something to see. Took a friend to her very first "South Side" game ever in 2016, last game of the season. First pitch was an inside the park home run. She loved the modern Women's rest rooms, ease of entry and exit, the spacious concourses, real parking lots, and that they lost!

Early morning activity around the station...

Moonson,

I love your alley.  Nice and filthy; filled with litter and other garbage.

I'm glad you liked my grubby little alley.

Close-up, it looks even worse, huh.

Thank you for the feedback, Boo Man.
