Haha- here is your scene:
Officer Smith, we have a 10-48: Requesting backup.
I took some more photos, you can see them here.
hon30critter No Frank, you have it all wrong! It all depends on how fast you are going, ala Steve McQueen in Bullitt. Dave

zstripedo You think You could do some thing with the peak in that road? Too steep for any vehicle.....the auto You have facing the hill, once the front tires hit the peak and go a little further, the front wheels will be off the ground and the auto will be sitting on the frame.....

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
The peak is extreme in the photo Harrison posted this week.

I have seen pictyures of this scene from different points of view, and it looks fine.
I have always had scenes in my layouts that only look good from a certain point of view. That is a sacrifice we weigh when we build these scenes.

Living the dream.
You're right, Frank, and obviously more observant than am I, too.
doctorwayne I can see only one photo in your post here, but the others in your link show up just fine, too. You've got some nice scenes there, Harrison, but I hope that the cop calls for an ambulance for the poor guy that's fallen from the ladder. Wayne

I don't want to sound negative.......but do You think You could do some thing with the peak in that road? Too steep for any vehicle.....the auto You have facing the hill, once the front tires hit the peak and go a little further, the front wheels will be off the ground and the auto will be sitting on the frame.....unless of course, the auto bends in the middle. Too much teeter-totter effect. Too Me anyway.....I think it distracts from the good parts of the scene........mainly because that is the first thing I noticed. I think if you shaved the peak down and used a retaining wall in that spot on both sides of the road it would not look so impractical. JMHO......
Take Care!

I am very impressed.
You really have an eye for creating pleasing scenery. The colors and textures look great.
I took some photos from my layout today. I don't think the ywill show up here, but you can see them here.
