Photo backdrop: corn/dirt road/wheat
Posted by CORD CAMERON on Thursday, July 6, 2017 2:37 PM

After reading articles on Tony Koester's NKP layout and watching videos of said layout, I saw photo backdrops of a corn field and wheat field separated by a dirt road. The locations were at Linden, IN, Cayuga Hill and when standing at the Charleston, IL yard you could see that backdrop across the far aisle on the back wall.

My question is this:  who makes that backdrop?  I need it in N Scale.  I've searched all the usual suspects in the photo backdrop realm and just cannot find it.

 

Any help (Tony K?) would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

If you follow Tony's NKP story, I believe Tony made the bachdrop from photos of the area.

A website called Train Junkies has some good looking backdrops, and they will make custom ones.

Being old is when you didn't loose it, it's that you just can't remember where you put it.
