Show me skid row.

How about an abandoned gas station [left] in a very economically distressed neighborhood - can't get any more "skid row" that that, ya think?

Show me something mining-related.

My favorite parts of the desert. The Superstition mountains with a lot of compressions and then the cactus around the area.

Show me skid row.

I was going to ask for hoodoos a couple of days ago, and here they are!! I decided they were too rare. The only person I know that modeled them was the O Scale guy (don't remember his name) who often put dinosaurs with his trains; have not seen him around in a long time...

Oh well, back to skid row

Darn. I missed the church, but here it is any way.  I already showed you my brewery, but here is the loading dock.

We still need another brewery.

It's hard to tell in this photo, but this is where the team track will be on my layout. If it doesn't yet qualify as a team track, feel free to skip me.

Show me something electric.

This could be Alaska,--- but it's not. You made me think, I don't have an Alaska scene and I spent three months there. Something to add someday

For birds, here are my pheasants. The loggers have rigged a shooting platform on the logging car and are having a shoot at the Hill farm, right from the track. Illegal, but they didn't seem to care. Also a pic of the birds flying. They are hard to keep in focus.

Show me a tall building
