    I read the previous message from Charles Knouse and it was unfortunately so well written and described exactly my reaction that it left me with very little to say. (And, boy, that doesn't happen very often!).
    I am not a model railroad buff--but I can appreciate the art and effort that goes into creating such a realistic display. I particularly like your "junkyard". Is that red door off a 59 Edsel?? Thanks for the opportunity
    to visit from the ATIS site.

      The layout is purely for my own entertainment (to keep my mind off of the "real world"), and when things work out well, I am surprised and pleased. I am glad you liked it.

    Hi Mike,
    Cool layout! I love the Hustler Cow & Calf. Lots of neat vehicles. Also enjoyed the tractor photos. Especially like the Farmall Cub.
    Best,
    Don

    Wow, your train setup is fabulous. The junkyard is superb. I also really like the way everything is realistically aged and, where appropriate, grimed. Very realistic. And the old side-railed locomotive; the hotel with the card room; the cars parked along the street; and especially that snow-plow car filled with old wheels for ballast!! The electrical supply is cool, too.

    Thanks, really enjoyed the tour.
