Buckeye,
Trainland U.S.A. north of Colfax Iowa has a billboard on I-80. I don't think it's as flashy as the one you posted, but it did get my attention and the wife gave me permission to stop. Spent about two hours looking at their layout and hobby shop while she waited in the car reading a magazine. Gotta love that girl. [:D]
Happy Training,
Slim

This sign's color and content made me turn around and take this photo to share with others on the forum. What a great promotion for model trains. [8D] I have never seen anything like this in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Michigan, where I travel extensively.


Since the whole world can read this, are there other billboard promotions out there? [?] I think I will try to incorporate a billboard promoting model trains on the second phase of my layout. With the aid of the computer maybe I can get it to be as outsanding as the real thing. [:D]
