[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by bluepuma In the latest MRR, sure liked how well the HO layout caught the look of the town, nearly as if I had been there. I'm in N scale, and most of the models are not available, would need to be scratchbuilt. Lived in Arizona and California for a long time, drove though the little towns looking like that, except usually no railroad, Barstow is bigger. May be BNSF tracks near the border where I-40, former Highway 66 went through, more often I drove the route of I-10, no tracks, or to Vegas, no tracks most of the way. He sure caught it, all it needs is my Suzuki motorcycle or a few Harleys. Also admired the N scale 2.5x5, looks amazing, inspiring, my friend Mike started a slightly different version of the same loops, on a door, so longer. Noted the use of the Milling offset between the two store buildings as a viewblock, I will remember that and use that when I place some of my buildings, to hide the train running along he back loop in my city area. Good job, very positive. Also like the Turtle Creek extension, when I first saw that, I thought, NOW it looks like a railroad. My favorite layouts have been L shaped, and I'm starting mine with a 2.5x7.2 and 3x7.4 L before I build down the other two walls.
