The right side, 2010.  The skyscrapers are not-to-scale cardstock models.  The large structure on the right is my rendition of a powerhouse.  It was constructed from 2 expansion floors for the Playmobil Victorian Mansion.  From right to left on the upper floor, are Types K, T and A pre-war transformers with #95 rheostats while an Aristo-Craft transformer, a Dorfan controller and a #91 circuit breaker occupy the lower level.  The type K is wired through the rheostat to a pair of terminal posts on the end of the building.  The A and T transformers are also wired through rheostats to 8 position terminal strips mounted to the other side of the PVC smokestack.  The roof and truss were made from sheet and strip styrene and although you can't see it, there's a sign made of wood letters on the front of the building that spells out "Lionel Trains" with the circle L logo between the words.

The doctor is also in the house.  Maybe you can spot his conveyance?
