The right side of the Boothbay Railway Village layout has a 1-1/2% grade which is hidden by a row of buildings; basically, a tunnel of buildings. The lower end has industrial buildings

While it still needs a few scenic details, this is Rita's Oasis (named for my late Mother)...
...and I did add some details to the kit...
How about some more eateries, please.
Show more eateries. Regards, Peter
HO-Velo Show more eateries. Regards, Peter
I really like this little kit from DPM. Woodland Scenics also offers it as a Built 'N Ready structure.
I have interior lighting as well as under the roof of the drive-in portion but haven't got around to hooking them up yet.
More Diners, Drive-ins, or Dives.
More diners, drive-ins, or dives. Regards, Peter

Anyone driving up US Rte 1 in Waldoboro, ME will know Moody's Diner; it's been there for more than 75 years. I added it to the Boothbay Railway village layout using a stock model diner as a stand in for the prototype

Kevin sent me this nice station kit in N scale. Sorry to say it will be a while before I can get to building it. I'm thinking of changing a few things on it, too. Thanks, Kevin!
Please show me more stations.
Sorry to interupt the flow but a startlng resemblance to the Baltimore Penn Station.
The request was an above track station.

At one time, the Burlington Station which I posted above was connected to Omaha's Union Station by an above track concourse as seen here:
aerial37.jpg (576×453) (historicomaha.com)
The Missouri River bridge is seen in the background. At its peak, seven different railroads were served by Union Station while the Burlington Station had a single tenant in addition to the CB&Q. I think it was sometime in the 1960s that the connection between the two stations was removed as shown in the photo I posted earlier. I know of no other situation where two major stations are connected like this.
I've thought about building these two stations as a diorama using the Walthers kit for Burlington Station. I'd have to scratchbuild Omaha's Union Station which is the one on the left in the photo. The outside walls are a bit more ornate so it would be quite a challenge. I doubt I'll ever get around to it.
The last request was for an over the track station.
