[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by John Busby hi Capt Carrales Whats tack board? look very nice Overkill on bracing is not a bad thing. If your matierials are not weather proof make sure you seal them well and paint with exterior grade paint. Boy will you be in trouble when you try to build a delapitated building you will find these are harder than good ones. Probably showing ignorance of local and seen one too many westerns here but shouldn't some of your buildings be adobe? Dont forget to do a Ranger station[:D] My personal opinion only but three buildings that should be on all railways other than railway buildings police station in your case Texas Rangers might be more approriate hotel/saloon and a house of worship you will not go any where in the world that dosen't have a variation or substitute on those so it follows that they should show up on our railways in some form or other. Don't over do quantity of buildings remember to leave room for the garden to play its part in the illusion. that must amount to at least 4c worth regards John [/quote] John, I may be using the incorrect terminology, but what I say when I mean "tackboard" is a presentation board that is some high grade form product between two heavy grade pieces of posterboard. Its easy to cut and shape. I am still testing its outdoor worthyness. The buildings are based loosely on some old trackside structures in Premont, Falfurrias and Alice, Texas.
