Modeling a museum, any pointers?

<p>If there was any misake, I should specify that I will build *up to* the Southern most parking lot, but will not be going past that.</p> <p>I will build as far as I can on my 4X8, but like I said, if I need more, I will build extensions. </p> <p>I might even consider donating it to the museum as a year-round display. Many visitors are disapointed that there are no model train displays there, except around Christmas, but even then they only operated 17 days this past season. (A lot of disapointed visitors turned out, and paid the $8 addmission to not find what they were looking for.)</p> <p>If I can find commercially available models that are reasonably detailed and potray the artifacts at the museum, then I will go for it. I might re-paint and detail some cars. But if I do end up donating it, I will go out the wazoo to get prototypical models!</p> <p>[quote user="chutton01"]</p> <p> </p> <div class="quote-header"> looks like some of the equipment nearer the mainline tracks is in a state of so-so repair, so you could buy some used rolling stock/locomotives for that, and have some fun working on your weathering skills.</div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>The Satalite image Google has showed you is nearly 6 years old, many of the things you saw in so-so look much for the better.</p> <p>But thanks for the ideas everyone! It'll be fun to see how this turns out!</p>
