<p>Two things to note, Bars Mills dioramra was constructed and advised on by Mike Tyick, and if you've seen his work in th mohe model press, you' see it's heavily influenced by Selios, so the scenes have extra details and clutter, but today there are still rundown areas along the row where this holds truth.</p><p>Secondly, the urban modeling of the Rennselaer Modelers is based on the fifties, when railroads still kept yards and row clean and weed free, and freight service was still strong, especially in the northeast, an area they model, but look on there web site for photos of certain cities, especially circa '72, by Tony Steele and you'll see some rundown urban decay that fits right in with those kits. There is a prototype for many of these models, how you use them is the question.</p>
