Yeah, it did turn out to be a hobo paradise... a place where I would like to hang out !
Ideal vacation spot too! I like the 3 sided billboard! Neat idea!
Trains, trains, wonderful trains. The more you get, the more you toot!
I'm preparing to make a video of my O-gauge train layout, and wanted to make a few billboards for it.
I got the idea of making a triangular billboard that has three different advertising signs. I remember seeing a photo in a Classic Toy Trains magazine of someone making a hobo shack out of an old caboose.
I scrounged up an old caboose that I had, and decided to make a hobo camp.
I bought the hobo figures from Woodland Scenics... really liked that there was a hobo playing a harmonica included, since I play harmonica and plan on putting some harmonica music on my video.
My father worked for Golden Age & Pepsi bottling about 30 years ago, so I have lots of Pepsi related items on my layout.
Here are some photos:
