Joe Friday and Frank Smith discuss the finer points of the law while their backup for the raid waits in the unmarked cruiser.  This store has every right to selling naughty pictures and magazines to adults, but the bicycle and motor scooter in the alley indicate they are going to find minors inside when they raid the place.  Minors should not be exposed to that stuff until they are old enough to misbehave responsibly. 

Oh my!  Where did I put that bus pass!

Lee, Might be to young to remember the TV series "The Lineup", later reruns changed to "San Francisco Beat". 52 Ford, with Detectives played by Tom Tully and Warner Anderson. Great lost series.

On no, that was a cool show.  I remember watching it way back when, but I had forgotten it.  Gotta find a '52 Ford sedan . . .

I'm afraid to say it but I'm old enough to remember that show.

summer memories of cruiser nite from the deck. One blue to go

My Grandfather practice jumping, as he watches over my layout,

Today I'm thinking about him, today, and a letter just like this one, that we used to read this day of year (it was buried with him I think).

Beautiful scene. Where did you get the vehicle?

Alan and other thanks for the likes.

Alan what program did you use in creating yours. As you can see mine is still  a little rough, but at least its an improvement from the last posted video.

There is a small group of O scale guys from a local train club in Prescott who got together and built some 4x8 portable layouts to take around the area for special events. Through the efforts of the team leader we have finally found a home in a local shopping mall - free rent in exchange for running the first Sat of every month and special runs for holidays. Needless to say it has been every Sat since Thanksgiving. We are averaging about 400 people per run which the mall management greatly appreciates. Below are some pictures from the last run.

Well...I just reviewd pages of this thread that I had only briefly visited the first time.  So...with a little time on my hands I enjoyed picking up on those posts that I missed earlier.....WHAT A GREAT THREAD!!

Here are pics of my coal unloading shed and scrap yard workers....

I like your scene, Wood - very realistic.

Very nicely done....I can almost feel like I am there!!...

Thanks Alan and TrainsRMe for your nice comments.  Step by step I'm getting the hang of the scenery business and enjoying every step of the way.

Considering the size limitations there is some fantastic work being done here..... and the people are very friendly.

Usually a small crowd there at any time and once in awhile there are more.

Some neat ideas that can be adapted to larger layouts, too.

Did I mention that the people are very friendly?

The Harley dealership always attracts a lot of guys in suits and young kids, but neither group buys a lot.  You wonder how many bikes will they really sell today.

Love it Lee!!

Alan

Really great scene, Wood.

Very cool Lee
