Alan - Thanks for your comments, they mean a lot to me coming from a modeler of your caliber. I'm not sure what to think about a how-to article, I haven't been in the habit of taking pictures during the process.
Bryan - Wow, your wood trestle looks great and so does your subway station. Definite wow factors.
Charlie - You are right about Brian's Dept 56 city, it is not only beautiful, but very impressive. I haven't seen it in person, but from the pictures it is fantastic. And so much to look at. And thank you very much for the kind words.
TonkaNut - Wow! Wow! That is the "wow factor" on steroids. What a fabulous scene you have created! You are the poster child for WF scenes.
Pete - What a great roundhouse and turntable scene. Because it is isolated from the rest of the layout it must cause people to stop and really take in all the action and details. Very nice job.
Great pictures guys!
