MisterBeasley,While I enjoy the fun mini scenes like yours I would never allow such on my ISL simply because I work so hard at creating believability on a small 12' or less ISL and to allow visitors to see the joy of switching cars at industries.I want their eyes to focus on the industrial scenery and details.
With that said.. I have place a Sasquatch on at least two club layouts that went unnoticed for several weeks.

You know, where you start to get to the Yellow Brick Road, which I guess is in Oz, but lots of UP Yellow whichever way you start out from Kansas...or something like that. My clumsy stab at word play.
Larry,
I have a moose on my layout. No one has yet bothered to notice that there are no moose in Colorado.

Rich,
Well, there didn't used to be. Says something about isolated populations being in Colorado in wkiepedia, but then says they were reintroduced in 1978 and the population is now ~1,800. Colorado Parks & Wildlife says that they never really were established in CO, just strays wandering in from Wyoming: http://cpw.state.co.us/learn/Pages/LivingwithWildlifeMoose.aspx
I suspect the newspaper has a more up to date number on population, but IIRC what few moose there might have been were wiped out (probably fed a lot of miners with one moose) once non-natives moved in and that the 1978 reintroduction was intended to correct that. Since my layout is definitely before 1978 (say 1970 to 1975-ish), no moose except my plastic one. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
