Then you could put in a spur leading to a receiving warehouse and adjacent hanger where all kinds of aeronautical goodies could be displayed. <br /> <br />And as for that earthen model of yourself, you could point to it and tell people "there's a likeness of major Carrales, he has feet of clay". <br /> <br />Walt <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Recently I attended a Search and Rescue Exercise in Victoria, Texas (from whence the photo below was snapped), the Regional Airport there was once an Airforce Base. <br /> <br />There once also once a spur of the type you mentioned, but only a few crossing signs and some rails embedded in the road remain. Even the main line it attached to is history. <br /> <br />Give me some time and I think I can swing something...lots of time. <br /> <br />I should like to try to make that figure. <br /> <br />Major Carrales
